“I’m honored,” he whispered hoarsely, too aroused by now. If he didn’t find his release, he would go crazy! As if sensing his need, she eased herself off the pillow and pulled down his sweatpants instead. Ashton groaned when her fingers touched his throbbing erection, stroking it just like the way she had earlier. She took him into her warm mouth, driving him crazy with pleasure. Ashton tipped his head backward, and closed his eyes, overcome with the sensation of her soft, wet mouth. It was pure bliss. Although it wasn’t the release he was hoping for, he soon drowned in the sensation, groaning with satisfaction. His hands fisted her hair while she dug her nails into his legs, her mouth working on him until he exploded in her mouth. After wiping her lips clean, she looked up at him to see his reaction. “Was it okay?” she asked hesitating a little. “It was f*cking perfect! I love that hot mouth of yours!” he groaned, feeling himself growing hard again. She would be the death of him

Hayley tried hard to concentrate on her work the next morning at her office, but failed miserably. The hurt from last night was still fresh in her mind. Ashton didn’t even bother to stop her from leaving. Apart from two missed calls, there has been no communication from him at all. It only proved that he didn’t much care about her. It was just a shallow fling for him. After a sleepless night, her head felt heavy, and all she wanted was to go home and sleep. She had expected Ashton to contact her in the morning, but he hadn’t. In fact, he didn’t log in to the messaging app after she left. Did he forget her so soon? She wanted to go to Silver Spring Resorts and meet him, but then thought against it. Let him miss her! Let him seek her out. However, the whole day passed by, yet he didn’t seek her out or contact her. Hayley was at her wit’s end. Should she go back to her parents’ house or to her rented apartment? Choosing the former, she went home to her parents’ house, still refusing t

Ashton drove over to Hayley’s mansion and waited to see her. His condition was like that of a scorned lover. What choices did he have? She still had her phone switched off.

Resist Me If You Can (Temptation Series Book 5) Chapter Fifty - Colliding With Him
Hayley sighed for the umpteenth time at seeing the visitor’s form in front of her. So Ashton had come here in her absence to see her. What could he possibly want? She wasn’t going down that path again. He could have an affair with whoever he pleased. It had almost been two months since she had last seen him, but her life had changed drastically in those last few months. Ever since she had moved into her parents' house, she could feel the topic of her marriage cropping up almost daily. At a charity event, her mom and granny met Jason again. He showed a keen interest in her, which got her family rethinking their decision. “I’m not interested in marrying Jason.” Her decision was final but her granny pestered her almost every day. Hayley had no idea what personal gain she would get out of their relationship. “He has changed a lot, my dear. He wants to come over to dinner, just for you. Meet him once and see for yourself,” coaxed her granny. “I don’t want to. If he comes over, I’ll mo

Ashton went out, straight to Silver Spring Resorts to have a word with the security guards. He had to know what was happening. He couldn’t let Madison create problems in his relationship with Hayley. He approached the guards on duty who immediately greeted him with respect. Ashton produced a picture of Madison from his mobile phone and showed it to them. “Have you seen this woman around here in the last two months?” The guards looked at the photograph and recognized her immediately. “Yes sir. That’s your girlfriend, Madison. She came here a few times to see you.” Ashton’s jaws dropped at the information. What? So Madison arrived here claiming to be his girlfriend! He seethed with fury and faced the clueless guards. “How can you blindly believe anyone and allow them entry without my permission? This woman is just an acquaintance of mine and hasn’t met me at all when she arrived here. How is it that I don’t have any information on this?” he reprimanded them. “Oh, we’re sorry, Mr. P

Christopher Barclay waited for Ashton in his study the next day when Hayley was at work. Knowing his hardworking nature and level of intelligence, he too wanted Ashton to handle Barclay International. “Why have you called him, Chris?” asked her mom, sitting down with her husband. “I hope you aren’t considering him for Hails?” “No, Carol. Relax. I just want him to work for us.” “Why? I don’t want him around Hails. He will manipulate her mind and she’ll never consider Jason,” said Caroline Barclay bitterly. She had seen Ashton once at a social gathering long ago, to which the entire Van Every family was invited. She hated the sight of the tattooed guy, who looked like a misfit among them. Therefore, it was natural that she preferred Jason, who tried to impress her when they met at charity events. “You’re overreacting, Carol. Ashton isn’t the type to manipulate Hayley. Despite his rough exterior, he’s quite a polished and well-behaved boy.” “You can keep your opinions to yourself, C

Ashton waited patiently for Hayley outside her gate. He wanted to go inside and get her but her mom’s words echoed in his mind and he stayed in the car. Hayley peered at him from her balcony and rushed inside. Under the streetlights, Ashton saw her looking hot in a black dress that clung to her curves. He couldn’t wait to hold her in his arms tonight. Soon the wicket gates opened and Hayley emerged with a shy smile on her face. With her thick shiny hair bouncing at every step she took, her curvaceous figure swaying tantalizingly as she walked towards him, Ashton was drowned in her beauty. His body started revolting against his decision to go away. Why should he, when Hayley confessed her love for him? Why would he step down because of her mother? Her opinions didn’t matter to him because he hardly knew her. What mattered to him was Hayley’s feelings. If she wanted him to stay, he would. Ashton got down to open the door for her. “Thanks. I was dreading the drive!” she said breathless

Throughout dinner, there was a verbal battle between Beatrix and Eva. They all supported Eva against Beatrix's constant jabs. Alyssa looked upset, since it was her birthday treat and it wasn’t what she wanted. “Why did we come here, Alex? You should have tried the food at Hudson Skyview. The food is to die for. It’s a hot favorite amongst all celebrities. You won’t believe it, the famous actor Tom Duncan wanted to purchase the place. I was present when he made the offer,” laughed Beatrix, but no one seemed to be interested in her talks. “We are no celebrities. So this is fine for us. I actually love the food here,” said Alyssa with a fake smile. “I understand,” said Beatrix, giving her a sympathetic look. “So, Eva, you’re a nurse, right? I’m sure you’ve never seen a place such as this in your life.” “Yes, I’m a nurse. Saving lives, and nurturing people to health, is my priority in life, Beatrix. So answering your question, no, I’ve never been here or to your celebrity place. I’m

“I’m so happy to be back!” exclaimed Hayley the moment she stepped into Ashton’s penthouse in Hotel Bayview. Ashton smiled but didn’t share the same enthusiasm as hers. “What? Aren’t you happy?” she asked, seeing the lack of excitement in him. “I’m happy, but I’ll feel happier when we move into our home. This is fine while traveling around, but we need a permanent place to call our own. I want us to settle down in the apartment Dad bought for us. Six more months to go and the New York hotel will be ready to inaugurate. We can then fulfill our dreams,” said Ashton while Hayley snaked her arms around his torso with contentment. She was happy with the way things were shaping up. “Still, I’m happy. Maybe because we’re together! Don’t think I’ll leave you alone in the next six months.”“We will be together, but you have an obligation towards your dad, towards Barclay International, Hayley. For years, you had dreamed of handling this empire. Don’t leave that at the peak of your career. Y

Hayley helped Ashton change into comfortable clothes before heading for a shower. Ashton looked around her huge bedroom suite fit for a princess. The king-size bed invited him and he lay down to wait for her. All the tension eased out of his mind forever. With Francesca’s death, the last threat that was looming over their heads also eased away. Now they were free! Free to enjoy life together like the others. He had always wanted such a free life and now his wish had been granted at last. “What are you thinking?” asked Hayley, looking fresh and dewy in a pair of lavender pajamas as she emerged from the en-suite. Ashton smiled and held out his right arm for her. She climbed into the bed, closer to him and he wrapped his arm around her soft body. It felt so good to be alive and cuddled up against her. After his accident, he had never thought he would live to see this day. “I’m grateful to God for granting my wish and reuniting us forever!” “Yes. Are you upset that we can’t marry this

Four men got down from the white Camry and pulled out a huge sack from the trunk of the car. Ashton gasped, recognizing Costello as one of them. The sack surely had Hayley inside as it looked big enough to accommodate a human body. With Mr. Barclay’s grip on his hand holding him back, he couldn’t rush to rescue Hayley. Not that he could with his injuries. Suddenly, gunshots rang in the air, taking the men by surprise. Three men fell to the ground, while the other one dumped the sack and pulled out his gun. But he too was overpowered by the SEALS Team who had been waiting for an opportunity to nab them. But where was Francesca? Ashton searched inside the Camry but didn’t see her inside. Under the dim lights, it wasn’t possible to see properly. Just then, a black Maserati pulled up stealthily into the street. Henry’s eyes widened at seeing the driver’s window roll down and a silencer gun peer out, targeting the sack Hayley was in. He realized immediately what the person was up to. He

“Sir, you’re not in a condition to travel,” said Victor refusing to book his ticket.“I have to. My fiancée has been kidnapped a few hours ago.” “I’ll come along, sir. I can’t leave you alone in your condition,” insisted Victor. “Fine, you can book two tickets.” After four hours, Ashton and Victor reached New York. He straight away coordinated with Hayley’s dad and reached the police station where they were still waiting. With his head bandaged and his left arm injured and in a sling, Ashton entered the police station, looking pale, tired, and haggard. Mrs. Barclay gasped at the sight of him while Hayley’s dad came forward to meet him. “Hello, son! Why did you come over when you’re so injured?” he scolded Ashton but he just shook his head. “I’m fine, Uncle Chris. Any news of Hayley? Why was she coming over to Miami when I asked her to rest? She never listens.” “Ask me about it,” grumbled her dad. “They’re still tracking the white Camry that was involved in the kidnapping. We’ve

“Where? In Bayview?” asked Hayley with wide eyes filled with excitement. “Nope! At Simon’s mansion on the beach. I can make all the arrangements before I come over on Monday.” Hayley grabbed him excitedly and planted a kiss on his cheek. “Oh, I’m so excited. Can I come over and plan our wedding?” “No. I think you should rest. I’ll video conference with you on everything.” Hayley felt disappointed, but didn’t argue. Ashton dropped her off and headed to the airport. While he quickly completed his pending work, Hayley went to the office as usual. However, she eagerly waited for Monday for her dad and Ashton to arrive. Her dad arrived on Monday night, but there was no sign of Ashton. He hadn’t even called her, let alone video conference with her. Initially, she had thought he was busy, but now she felt a little worried. Ashton wouldn’t forget something so important.

Ashton wrapped up his work, and they reached New York the day before the wedding. “Take care of your health in everything you do. I have to check up on Alexander.” “Dad's in Singapore. Can I stay with you in your apartment?” asked Hayley hopefully. “Not this time, baby. You’ll be all alone there since I will have to be with Alexander. Go home after checking up on Eva.” He kissed her forehead and left to go to Alexander’s penthouse. Hayley went inside her house, pulling her luggage along. With Eva in the hospital, Skylar would pick her up in an hour and head there. Just as Ashton had expected, Alexander broke down on seeing him, and they plotted and planned their next course of action. “Why don’t you clear up the air between you?

Ashton’s jaws dropped with shock, and he gaped at Hayley, who looked as surprised as him. “But she doesn’t have any of the symptoms the other pregnant women do.”“All women don’t show the same symptoms. Some are too nauseated, some don’t even realize they’re pregnant until the fourth month. It varies from person to person.” “Is it a cause for concern? I mean, Hayley is just twenty-two, and she hadn’t been resting exactly.” “Her age is perfect for bearing a healthy baby. Don’t worry, I’ll just prescribe some medicines to take care of her fatigue. Otherwise, you both can lead a normal life but you have to go for timely checkups. Keep eating small meals and never stay on an empty stomach. I can make a diet plan for you if it helps,” offered the kind doctor to a dazed Hayley. “Yes, please. That would be helpful indeed,” said Ashton, seeing Hayley’s unresponsive state.After the doctor left, Ashton couldn’t contain the happiness he felt deep within him. He sat on the bed and pulled her

After Simon Baylor’s funeral, Ashton was in a state of confusion. Ever since he arrived in Miami, he had been busy with the hospital formalities in the absence of Simon's family or relatives. At the same time, he had to handle the business all by himself and prepare for Simon’s funeral too. However, he was glad that Victor Hughes helped him with everything. Having worked for Simon for eight years, Victor was extremely knowledgeable and knew everything about Simon Baylor. “Mr. Pierce, I have scheduled a meeting today at 4 o’clock with Henry Willis, sir’s lawyer. Sir wanted you to meet him right after your arrival here, but we had to take care of the other important things first.” There wasn’t much time at hand, and Ashton grabbed a late lunch and rushed to the conference room. Simon Baylor’s death was so sudden that Ashton didn’t get a moment of respite, struggling to sort out the loose ends. Maybe Simon didn’t expect the infection to spread so fast and turn fatal.
