Chapter 25
*CAMILLE’S POV*
I groaned and managed to get off the bed. My leg shook and I started feeling dizzy.
On taking another step, I fell on the floor and lapsed into unconsciousness.
==========
My eyes opened to see Asher down at me. I look around and realized I am still in the bedroom and on the floor.
“Awake now?” He asked, not showing any sign of care.
I said nothing and just stared at him.
“Since you are. Go prepare my food. If you like, pretend to faint again and trust me when I tell you are going to come back to the land of the living when i flog you with belt” he said but I still wasn’t surprised.
He is Asher and he is capable of doing anything.
“Get up and stop sitting there like a log of wood” he said
Chapter 26*HARRY’S POV* I was back in New York and of course, to the office and I wasn’t surprised to meet lots of works waiting to be be done by me.I didn’t see camille since the day I spoke harshly to her and I think it’s better that way. For the both of us.Her husband is working under me. It wouldn’t be nice for me to be around his wife.I haven’t seen Scarlett too since I arrived and I don’t want to.I heard the wedding didn’t hold for reasons nobody know about and it have been postponed.I don’t care. If she likes, she should get married to my dad, it her cup of tea.Have made up my mind not to think about her again and just move on.
CHAPTER 27*CAMILLE’S POV*I dropped the phone when Asher shifted on the bed. Wait, I thought it only Lydia he is cheating on me with.So there is another lady who goes by the name Sandra. Wow!, just wow!If he is going to be cheating. Why else is he cheating. It just so confusing. It not a different person entirely has taken over Asher’s body because he isn’t the man I fell in love with and married.I turned my back against him and closed my eyes and fell asleep immediately.The next day....I woke up really early. Asher was still sleeping. I got up from the bed and exit the room. I went to the kitchen and decided to make tea and sandwich.I finished after some minutes and took it to the dining and proceeded to cleaning the
Chapter 28 *CAMILLE POV* Scarlett screamed as Annie further pulled her hair. “I don’t care who you are and I don’t even want to know who you are but if there’s something you should detest from, it is messing with me or best friend. I pray we never cross path again, loser!” Annie said and released her hair and then pushed her hardly making Scarlett land on her butt on the floor. “Let’s go Camille” Annie said taking my hand and moving me out of the scene. ======== On our way back, I finally got the energy to talk to Annie. “You really don’t have to do you know” I said. “Camille, I have to. She is one of those rich kids that thinks they are get whatever they want. Someone needs to set her straight and that person is me” “But what if..?” Annie interrupted me. “There is
Chapter 29*CHLOE’S POV*I haven’t seen him since the time he bumped into me and have forgotten about him. Now, seeing him in my brother’s office brought back some feelings I don’t seem to understand.He half smiled. “oh hey there, Chloe right?”Wow, he remembered my name and I don’t even remember his.“Yeah..”“Okay..what is going on? You guys know each other?” Harry asked looking at us.“I guess so. He stays in the estate. he is new”“Oh I had no idea...he is my new P.A”“Oh..wow” I stuttered.“These are the flies” he said and dropped it on Harry’s table.“Okay. You can leave Finn”
Chapter 30*CAMILLE’S POV* I woke up feeling a bit weak and rolled on the bed tiredly.I sat up on the bed and remembered I was still in the guest room.I remembered last night and my eyes widened and I jumped up.Wow!!, did that really happen?!He looked really shocked and when I brought out the knife, his expression was priceless.Annie really helped because without her, I wouldn’t have stood up to Asher. But, am still wondering, does she know about Asher for her to say stuffs like that.Or she did know and she want me to stand up to myself like that.“Thank you, Annie. Thank you!” I said to myself grinning and realizing I sound and look funny and crazy right now, I sat back on the bed.N
Chapter 31*CAMILLE POV*Asher’s mum didn’t say anything after she heard my “fake phone call”. I could feel her gaze on me as I returned back to my cooking.After some minutes, she left me in the kitchen. I know she is thinking about so many things right now and am going to make her believe so much more later.I finished cooking and I served it and then went back to the living room.She was seated in the living room watching a reality show. I sat beside her and she turned to look at me. Gulping down nothing, she shifted a little bit on the couch creating a distance between us and I smirked concentrating on the tv.“How is everybody at home?” I decided to start up a conversation.She looked at me as her eyes widened and quickly masked it with a smile. “Everybody is fine. I miss My son and of course
Chapter 32“I can’t believe this. Why the hell will a man lay his hand on his wife. He doesn’t deserve to live. Infact, he deserves a really painful death. This just spoilt my mood. When he is not an animal, he dare lay his hand on a woman”I smiled painfully and then looked at her intently. “Oh really?, that means your son is an animal because that is exactly what he does”“What!” His mom exclaimed shocked.“What are you talking about?” She asked me.“maybe you should ask your son that” I rolled my eyes at all.Asher’s mom looked her son questionably and he shrugged.“I have no idea what she is talking about? Camile, what is going on?”&nb
Chapter 33“It’s just two years, not twenty two years. She is going to get pregnant at the right time okay? Let just forget about all this, I need to be at work” Asher said tiredly,“Asher! We are not done with this conversation!” His mom said sternly but Asher just turned at the same time with his mom and saw me standing and looking at them with a shocked expression.His mom covered her mouth not expecting to see me.“Wow!” I breathes out.Asher made eye signal with me not to talk but hell no!, am not going to keep quiet on it.I stared at his mom with angry eyes.“So am barren?” I laughed.“Camille, I was just saying..” she tried saying but I laughed hysterically.“Asher, why act so cool in front
Chapter 76CAMILLE’S POVI dropped the papers in front of Asher with no expression on my face. This is what I have been waiting for for so long.Living a normal life without Asher. He have been arrested and put behind bars but it isn’t time for the hearing at the court yet to decide his fate. I sent the video clip to the police and kept mine in my system in case something happens.“So you are just going to let me go to jail just like that..” Asher said not making any attempt to pick the pen.“Yes. You deserve it and can you please sign the papers. I have other things to do” I said.“Camille..I’m sorry” he apologized bowing down his head.“Well. It’s too late for that. I just do
Chapter 75ANNIE’s POVTWO DAYS LATER....It have been two days and camille have been missing. She left her phone in the house and there was no way to reach her.Half of her load was gone and I have no idea where she is.I have checked everywhere but still couldn’t find her.I was with Miranda and Chloe. Harry was also missing for the past two days.“What if they both went out. Because they both went missing the same day” Chloe said thoughtfully.“And they both left their phones at home. Gosh!” Miranda said and I hissed.I don’t like her, no doubt.“I don’t know where we should look for them again because honestly, I’m ti
Chapter 74CAMILLE’S POV“Camille, what’s wrong. You have Been brooding ever since we came back. Is something wrong?” Annie asked worriedly.I was on my bed covered in my duvet in deep thoughts.“I’m fine.” I said.“You aren’t, obviously!” Annie muttered.“I am. I just want to be alone”“Sorry to say but I can’t leave you like this.”My phone started ringing. I picked it to see Harry’s name on the caller ID. I hurriedly cut the call.“What’s wrong?” Annie asked suspiciously.“Nothing!” I answered immediately.“I don’t believe you. Just tell me”I was about to talk when my phone started ringing
Chapter 73HARRY’S POV“Be my boyfriend” she said and my eyes bulged out in shock“What..what are you talking about?” I stuttered.“You heard me right. I like you, a lot and I see no reason why we shouldn’t date”“But I don’t like you. I’m in love with someone else” I muttered.“Camille?” She asked with an angry look and I nodded in affirmative.“What’s so special about her? I’m far more better than she is” she said angrily.“But it’s her I love”“Well, I don’t care. You will get to love me as time goes on. Let’s date first”“No”Miranda smirked and
Chapter 72CAMILLE’s POVAfter what seems like forever, Harry finally disengages from the kiss. I took a deep breath trying to catch my breath.I bowed down my head as I was even shy to look at him. This would be our first actual kiss. He wasn’t drunk. He kissed me willingly. Why?, I wondered.I felt his hand on my chin and he made me look at me.We both stared at ourselves and opened our mouths at the same time.“You go first” he offered and I nodded.“Why did you kiss me?” I asked and his facial expression changed.I was expecting this but I was so so stupid. I shouldn’t have allowed him to kiss me.I now what he is going to say right now would hurt me. He probably would say it’s a mistake.&n
Chapter 71CAMILLE’s POVEver since I replied Harry yesternight, I have been scared to check my phone.I didn’t know if he have replied me or he have even seen the message. I just went to bed immediately after sending it.It was short and simple.To Harry- Yes, Okay.I buried my face in my pillow as my cheek had turn tomato already. Where would he take me to?What would happen?All these were bothersome as I couldn’t stop thinking about it.I made to pick my phone but I freaked out and buried my face in the pillow again.“Just calm down, okay. Calm down!” I told myself but wasn’t even working.Why the hell would I calm down when the guy I’m in love with would be goin
Chapter 70CAMILLE’S POV.“You are going to say yes?” Hudson asked. It was evening already and we had time to rest.“To?” I asked.“That dude’s request. You are going to go on a date with him?”“I don’t know” I answered truthfully.“You love him right?” He asked.“Uhm.....” I hesitated.“You don’t have to feel shy about it. It’s a normal thing” Hudson assured.“Well, yes” I replied.“I know that and I know he loves you too”“How do you know that?” I asked.“Because I do. It was so obvious. The way he looked at you and everything. When
Chapter 69CAMILLE’s POVI lapsed back into consciousness when I heard Hudson call me.I looked back at Harry who was staring at me amusedly and embarrassedly,I rushed away from the scene cursing my self.Had I know, I would have put my phone in airplane mode. Had I know, I wouldn’t have brought out my phone. Had I know, I would have just gone to another table instead of Table 5.“Too late for regrets, dol” my sub conscious said to me and I groaned.How did he even know I’m the anonymous person. He just have been contemplating and he just came over to the restaurant today just to confirm and he was right.I don’t know what to do. I’m practically going crazy right now. Everything just seems complicated and frustrating.“Hud
Chapter 68CAMILLE’S POV“Annie!, he asked to meet up” I half yelled as I barged into Annie’s room.She was on the bed operating her phone. “Huh?” She looked at me confusedly.“Harry freaking Campbell” I replied breathing heavily.Anything about him makes me super nervous.Annie’s plan wasn’t that okay but it was worth the try. She stylishly collected Harry’s number from Chloe and she told me to chat him up anonymously.I wasn’t even expecting him to reply as I saw Annie’s plan as dumb. But when he replied to my first message, I decided to give the plan a try.We have been chatting for a week now and I still refused to reveal who I am.I haven’t met with him in real life for the past one week we have been chatting.
