"I want to continue living in this dreamland, there is a handsome Man here! She murmured half sleep. She touched his " oh my God, he has broad shoulders and chocolate abs, she thought and momentarily licked her lips. " Holy heavens, don't let me wake up, I'm just going to stay married to him here in my dream! All those thoughts were going on in her head. Ashley opened her eyes slowly and saw a man beside her, he wasn't the man she married. "Hey beautiful" his hoarse and deep voice came through. Ashley shoved him and he stumbled to the floor. " Ouch…. my waist" he in pain. "Help!. There is an intruder here!
View MoreThe bride’s waiting room was a hubbub of activity as people fled in and out with a blur of excitement. Congratulatory cheers filled the space. “ Congratulations, my best friend, so dreams do come through,” Ashley giggled, spreading her hands for a hug. A wide grin stretched across Louisa’s lips and she welcomed her embrace. They stayed for a while before Ashley pulled herself back. “ You are so pretty,” she exclaimed, maintaining a smile on her face. “ Thank you so much,” Louisa glanced around as if she was searching for something. “ Jay?? Where is he?” “Oh Jay,” Ashley said, wiggling her lips, “ I hired a nanny for him, he gives too much trouble” She answered plainly and Louisa smacked her lightly at the arm. “ Don't you think he is too little for a nanny yet?!” She fired back, abruptly raising her voice. “ Hey…. I can't come with him to the wedding” jerking her head around “ he would be such a nuisance” She concluded, taking a seat close to Louisa. “ Whatever, you shoul
“I would like to have dõnor kebab without sauce please “ A lady demanded while handing the menu back to Louisa. “ Sure, would you like any dessert? We have pretty something nice” With a grin plastered on her face, making sure to serve the customers nicely, she inquired. “ No, I think I will pass” The lady replied, waving her hands off to show she wasn't interested. “ Okay ma'am, I will be back in some minutes” Louisa stomped off to the counter. She dropped the menu and went into the kitchen to give the chef a heads-up. While talking to one of the advanced chefs,a light nudge came on her shoulders and she whipped around to catch a glimpse of who touched her.“ What's the matter?” Her voice is low and calm.The fellow waitress who touched her, passed a piece of paper and an envelope to her. “ Maybe a tip of something, a customer asked me to give this to you” She shrugged as Louisa stretched her hands to get hold of the envelope. “ Thanks” She answered, a gentle smile carved up on
73" Congratulations ma'am, you are two weeks pregnant!" The Doctor said as Ashley's lips carved into a wide, loving smile. " Thanks, doctor, I have been expecting it! " She exclaimed. " I can't see the gender right now, right?" She asked in a curious and anticipating tone. Not the gender mattered but the number. The curiosity was killing her. " I'm afraid, no, you can come back during the eight weeks for an ultrasound. " The doctor clarified firmly.Ashley frowned, she badly wanted to know if she had at least two or three babies in her tummy. "Okay, doctor. Thank you so much " She thanked the doctor as she heaved a sigh before leaving the hospital. Anticipation flowed through Ashley's soul and body as she marked her calendars till the day she could learn that they were twins or triplets. She felt days ticked slowly as the expectation was killing her. Jason noticed how tense she was, she would always stand in front of the calendar biting her fingers. " Sweetie, don't take i
*2 months later * Ashley had healed from the trauma of losing her twins, Jason took her out on so many dates and she eventually got over it. She resumed work too. And recently they have been working really hard for triplets! At least Jason promised her it would be triplets or quadruplets.Jason was making French toast for their breakfast that morning. His cooking skills had gotten better because he frequently enhanced his skills with Ashley. Jason had finished setting the tables with the French toast and whipped yoghurt as dessert. "You are done?" He asked Ashley who stepped out. " Yeah, this French toast looks yummy, you have gotten pretty much better. I pray it is the same with the taste" Ashley giggled as took a bite from one. "Hmmm, it tastes nice, " She nodded in approval to the taste. " Tastes like you, you mean? " Jason winked at her. Ashley rolled her eyes. " I'm not skipping work again today like the other day. You pervert, "she jokingly said. " I can make that possibl
Once they got to the hospital, Ashley was rushed in for an emergency. Jason kept praying that his wife and babies would be okay. After much examination and treatment from the doctor. Jason, Margeret and Louisa went into the ward to see Ashley. She was lying peacefully on the patient's bed. Jason gripped her hands and kissed them. He kept it warm with his both arms as she was fast asleep. " Do you think the twins will be okay?" Louisa questioned with a worried look. They were yet to hear the results from the Doctor. " We have to wait for the Doctor to give us the news. Hopefully, I pray the twins will be okay " Jason remarked. His gaze on Ashley was mixed with Love and sorrow. Just that moment the Doctor stepped in with a sad expression. " Doctor, Are the babies okay?" Jason demanded immediately. The Doctor went mute for a while. " What happened? Please tell us " Louisa had imagined the worst scenario. The room was hushed and all eyes were on the doctor excluding Ashley wh
Everything began to make sense, why he couldn't find her all those while. He persuaded him to go on the business trip as well. So all these was just his schemes to get the company. He has been the one hiding Alexis! That sly fox How could he?! He has been targeting the company right under his nose. "Carlos, your assistant?" asked Louisa as her gaze was focused on him. " Yes, I put him in charge of finding Alexis but instead he had been hiding her. He is nowhere to be found now too. I have called him countless times. " " Then what are you going to do now? Are you going to sign away the company?" Her heart ached for Jason as she watched him in despair. Jason paused, his head was reverberating in confusion. Will he sign away the company and save his dear wife or leave her to die? This was the hardest decision Jason had ever encountered. "We will find her, " He mumbled and pressed his lips in agony. A notification came into his phone and it was a video of Ashley tied up and a gun b
Ashley gradually shot her eyes open and her vision was blurry. She could faintly see a Lady. She tried hard to force her eyes open for the second time, only to realize that she had been tied up! The moment her eyes opened wide, she looked around to see that the area seemed like an abandoned warehouse. Glancing up, her gaze met with Alexis! She struggled and tried to break free, but all her attempts went to zero because she was tied tightly. " Trying to escape now?" Alexis questioned with a smirk. She was all dressed in black and also a black face cap. She also had a mask around her neck region. "Untie me, this instant! Have you no shame? " Ashley's eyes flashed red in fury. " Why should I do that? You are yet to pay for your sins!" Alexis scoffed as she took out a cigarette and a lighter. Lightning it up as she began smoking, she blew some of the smoke right in Ashley's face. Ashley let out a cough from the smoke while Alexis let out a sneer of mockery. " My Mom is in prison b
"What is that?" Ashley glanced over at her. Louisa showed her the phone, Lyla had a picture together with Kevin and she posted it on her page! They wore matching outfits as if they had been a couple. " Ahhh,? this" Said Ashley after she looked up to see Louisa already boiling up with anger. " Calm down, I didn't want to tell you because of how you would react " Ashley muttered, dragging Louisa to sit down as she had already sparked up. " He is cheating on me, I should have known better! How could I trust him?" Louisa groaned, her eyes filled with rage. "He is not, he didn't want to tell you " Ashley defended." Don't tell me, she is his ex! Or future wife?! Or divorcee.?"Louisa thought of the best way to clarify the situation. What could he be doing with Lyla! Ashley's face squirmed into a wide grin. " You have a wild imagination!" She snickered, unable to control her mirth. "Why are you laughing? Then what's the best phrase for this situation?" Louisa wasn't finding it funny. S
"What! " Ashley sprang up from the sofa. Jason turned to her immediately. She quickly nodded to the rest of the words coming from her mother and took her purse to rush out."Wait, what happened? " Jason halted her after seeing her reaction. " My dad collapsed. " She broke out. "Wait I will go with you " He said, turning off the gas and taking off the apron. He washed his hands and both of them scurried out. *" He has a heart disease, arrhythmia, it has gotten worse and he needs to be operated on immediately" the doctor reported to Ashley who stared at her intently. " What type of surgery does he need?" She questioned."Here on the X-ray image. You can see his heart. " the doctor explained, pointing towards the monitor. " We have to carry out a procedure called catheter ablation. It involves threading a catheter through the blood vessels and into the heart to destroy abnormal vessels that are causing it. " "Can the surgery be scheduled today and is it safe?" Ashley asked with a
"I can't marry him!, you can't force me to marry an old crippled man, I won't!" Ashley yelled, without hesitation she stood up from the sofa, clenching her fists. They were mandating her to a ludicrous task! She rolled her eyes and glared at her dad, stepmother and sister who were seated in the living room."You have no choice! You better do it, you will pretend to be Alexis and marry Mr Elrod, I won't say it again" Jared coldly said, he was void of emotions."Dad, do you hate me that much, I have never been a bad daughter, why do you choose to treat me like this" Ashley pitifully let those words out, she was trying hard to control her emotions. No matter what she did, her dad never acknowledged it."I don't have the time for this, will you marry him or not? " Jared sternly asked, not minding his daughter's feelings."Over my dead body! Ashley shrieked and started walking towards the door."Stop there! You ungrateful bitch! Elena interrupted, she stood up from the couch and approached
