Ashley Walters povI felt something in my mouth and tried to gag.What the hell!My lashes unclasped and I tried to spit that thing.“What is this? Yuck!” I groaned in my sleep and wondered if Aniya or Eve had prepared coffee. I needed a strong cup.Gosh! My head might explode anytime now.“EVE!” I tried to call her loudly, “COFFEE! PLEASE!” My eyes fluttered close when I again felt that strange thing on my tongue.“Kitten!” Said a sleepy male voice beside me, “Edith would bring you, coffee, love.”The voice reminded me of Justin. Sigh!What!Justin?My eyes flew open. His head was there on my chest and his long curls were getting inside my mouth.“Umm. Justin? Is it you? Move away!” I pushed him with all my might and propped up on my elbows. Memories from the previous night started hitting me right in the head.I was almost a mess in bed. The quilt was wrapped around my body and the almost nak*ed man beside me was glued to me leaving more than half the side of his bed.“Let’s go to s
Hello readers. I hope you are enjoying this book. I am planning to finish this book by the end of the month. (By the end of March 2023 or by the 10th of April 2023. Depending on my commitments and Physio appointments.) Yes, the journey of Justin and Ashley is about to end. :-( After this, I plan to start a new book about Rowan Levisay and Sophia Wyatt. Both are the characters from my previous book, Oops I Married A CEO By Mistake. If you want you can read the book, but this Sophia/ Rowan book can also be read as a stand-alone novel. However, instead of starting a new book all over, I will add its chapters HERE. Once I will write the Epilogue of this book (Ouch! My CEO Fiance Fell For His Maid) after that I will take a rest for a few days and then will start writing the additional chapters. For those who want to stop at the Epilogue, is completely fine with me. :-) Thank you for staying with me and for encouraging me at every step and every chapter. Please keep in mind that I read
Ashley Walters povThe elderly woman was still the same. Except, she was no more wearing the maid uniform. Her white hair was still tied back in a bun. One or two more wrinkles had appeared on her face, but she still was the same. Her posture was straight, at least better than mine, her chin was up and that might be the reason she still didn’t have a double chin.“Hello, Ms. Walters.” She said with a cordial smile. Unexpectedly Edith didn’t take time and brought her to me within one hour, “I have heard you want to talk to me?”They both took their seats before us.“Please answer whatever she wants to know.” Said Justin sitting beside me. All this time, his hand never left mine, “Also she is NOT Ms. Walters. You can call her Mrs. Deluca.”The way Justin told her, made my heart flutter in my chest. A smile started teasing the corner of my mouth.“Oh,” she nodded in understanding, “I am sorry, Mrs. Deluca,” my heart was racing by now. A person calling me Mrs. Deluca was something I never
“You are unusually quiet, kitten.” I heard Justin’s low whisper beside me. We came late after wandering around outside and now we were having a scrumptious dinner that Edith made for us.“Nothing,” I tried to smile and placed a bread piece on his plate, “I have got a busy week ahead, but I need to talk to Sarah too.”I shared my concern at hand and placed my fork down.“Then what’s the problem?” he asked me and offered me a cucumber piece that I immediately accepted and opened my mouth.I chewed it and gobbled it down with my diet coke.“Time is the real issue. I can’t expect her to come over just to give me explanations. Secondly, Helga said the suitcase might either be with Sarah or it might still be lying in that storeroom. If it’s there I need to check it.”“Kitten, listen to me. One problem at a time. Please. Just focus on your presentation. I can take you to the mansion in the evenings and bring you back before midnight.”I looked at him with a frown, “You will do that for me, J
Ashley Walters povTechnically Aniya had the biggest bed among us. But I preferred to spend the night on MY bed.Aniya poked an elbow in my tummy when she thought no one was watching, “Hmm. Small bed!” She wiggled her brows, “so that you can stay closer to him. Ooh… glued to him.” She winked cockily and I had to control the smile that was not leaving my lips.All I could do was kick her leg under the table.After Eve served us beer cans we chatted until I could no longer stop yawning. Without waiting for a minute, Justin got to his feet and pulled me up.“It’s time to go to bed, kitten.” He circled his arm around me.“He is right,” Eve nodded, “Good night, Ash. Good night, Justin.”“Night!” we responded to her.Once inside the bedroom, I looked at my not too small but not too spacious enough bed that could hardly accommodate Justin and me.Unless we would decide to snuggle.I heard him sighing beside me, “I can use the couch, love. Don’t worry.”“No, no. You can use the bed and I can…
Justin’s povThe moment I killed the engine inside the reserved and VIP parking of Arguli University, she looked at me happily.“I …” She said with an uncertain smile and stuttered, tugging her hair behind her ear, “I think … I will miss you.” She finished with a shy smile.“And I am sure, I will miss you too, love,” I said appreciating her timid smile that was tugging the corner of her lips.She chuckled and looked outside.Just then an idea popped into my mind to mess with her, “Are you sure you want to attend the classes? Because if you have changed your mind, I can take you somewhere and we can …”“What? No!” she shook her head, horrified at the notion, “Actually, Justin … I don’t know. Here most of the students know me. Like I am not even aware of what they will think if they find me coming out of your car.”I ducked down my head and ran a quick gaze, “I doubt that, Kitten. Almost no one is here for the time being.” I turned to look at her beautiful face, “You are safe to go. All
I clearly underestimated my boyfriend and my husband. Despite such a serious issue, they both were engaged in a staring contest now. None of them wanted to back off.“Ok, guys,” I clapped to get their attention, “Can we sort it out like adults please?”“There is nothing to sort it. You are my wife!” Justin said not moving an inch.“Exactly, Mr. Deluca.” Gerald was proving to be a true friend, “She might be your wife. I might be her boyfriend. But I am not leaving her side unless she asks me to do so.”Now their eyes were on me.“Ashley. You should tell him that we are still married!” Justin said without even bothering to look at me.“I will, Justin.” I said and earned an affectionate smile from him until I finish it off, “I will exactly do that if you can give us some space… Some privacy.”He frowned and looked at me, “It shouldn’t take that long to tell him that …”“Justin!” I forced some warning vibes into my voice, “Can you please wait outside? I need to talk to Gerald.”Justin kep
Ashley’s pov: The first message from Justin: “Hello, love. Hope you keep your bag ready for the mansion visit that is due this evening.” The phone pinged again and there was a second message from him: “Oh, and one more thing. I love you. (A kissing emoji) A smile made its way to my lips when I read his message on my phone. The professor who was sitting in his seat and was waiting for us to finish our class assignment gave that look full of warning. “Sorry,” I mouthed and resumed writing the fu*cking note on the importance of color schemes in an interior, that I had the least interest in. The whole class was busy writing, God knows what. Then something clicked my mind, I smiled and started writing… [Not enough ideas? Fall in love. You want to bring colors to your interior? Fall in love. Because love is something that will change the perception of everything in your life. Whether it’s your profession, home, or your color scheme.] I kept writing until my fingers ached.
