The Billionaire's Ex Chapter Fourteen
He gripped her by the waist and pulled her closer allowing the pan to fall from her hands. Thea's hands found his freed collar, gripping them as their breaths became hurried and sharp.He finally let go, whispering her name into the night. "Thea." She breathed tremulously and watched as his nose streamed down the side of her face to her neck and he sucked. She gasped and moaned softly into the night as he kissed and tightened his hands around her. He walked her to the couch slowly as he kissed her on her cheeks, jaw, neck...His hands gripped her everywhere and he squeezed desperately trying to get her closer. His lips found hers once more and she finally tasted the alcohol in them.He was drunk!She finally came to her senses. He only came to her because he was drunk. Not necessary because he had forgotten what happened between them. Tears gathered in her eyes as she f

Tap!"Thea," he moaned as he kissed her jaw. She tapped her chest twice trying to calm her unsteady heart. It wasn't even an hour away from when he left and she was thinking about him again.Hypocrite!She package the lunch she had just prepared for her mother before walking down to the sitting room to grab the keys. Her eyes lingered on the couch where Ashton had spent the night for quite sometime.She honestly felt no need to tell him that he didn't just appear at her door and begged to spend the night. He didn't just lay down on the couch and pass out due to fatigue either. They actually kissed, made out and almost had sex last night.Thea bit her lips at the thought of last night. She had lesser sleep and did a lot of thinking instead. What was he thinking about when he came knocking at her door when he had friends

"I think I remember the name of the man,"Samuel hesitated before knocking on the door for the second time. The door finally opened, revealing the same woman he had rejected."You came back," she said to him and he frowned."Trust me it wasn't my intention," he muttered to himself and she raised a brow in curiosity. "Well can I come in?"Her reply was to leave the door ajar and walk in. She folded her hands under her breast as her fingers tapped on her elbow, nervously."Why did you come back? Didn't you find out who it was?" She forced a smile.He seemed to notice this nervousness. He planted his hands into his pocket and gave her a reply. "No, I didn't. That's why I'm here." He said to her.She nodded in understanding. "Is that the only reason why you came?" She asked with the little hope."Should there be any other reason?" He asked with his brow raised in confusion. She sucked in a breath before clearing her throat."Dawn-""Zachary Phillips" She said to him. "His name is Zachary,

Flipping through the pages of the file he held at hand, he read. It was once again, a Monday morning and paperwork began. He was drinking the remaining warm coffee left in the cup when he heard a knock on the door."Come in,""You sent for me sir," Samuel said to him."Yes I did. I need you to give Mr. Peterson a call. Remind him of his meeting with me by 10am sharp.""Yes sir, any other thing sir?" Samuel asked. "Nothing-" another knock sounded."Enter!" He called and Fiona walked up to him."I sent for my secretary, not you Miss Weston.""She hasn't signed in yet sir,""What do you mean she hasn't signed in yet?!" Ashton snapped and Fiona flinched in fear. Ashton cursed silently before waving his hand at her in dismissal and she got out of there as quickly as she could."I never knew I have a very incompetent and otiose secretary!" He stood from his chair. "I have to do everything without her then,""Ashton," the voice called. Ashton turned to look at Samuel in curiosity. Samuel nev

Thea was already seated on the bench waiting. The cool breeze of the evening swept against her face as she had her hands folded against her chest, in thoughts. The footsteps behind her sounded closer and she was forced to tilt her head in curiosity. She watched him till he took his seat besides her on the bench in the park. It was them against the cheerful giggle of little children All around. "Thank you for coming,""How is he?" Thea asked Samuel. "How did you leave him?" He asked instead before meeting her stare. "I didn't mean to," she said to him. "Tell that to him and he won't understand." He looked away from her and stared at the scene that formally took Thea's attention. He won't fully understand until you tell him the whole truth Thea." Samuel told her. "I can't," "What more sign do you want for you to know that whatever is happening is wrong? It has been wrong from the start." "What do you mean?" Samuel turned to her now, meeting her stare one more time. "Not too lon

Dawn sat before Mr. Peterson the next morning. Samuel requested of her to tell the police everything she had told him.After an hour of questioning, they let her go home.All they needed to do now, was find Zachary Phillips and they will be an inch close to the culprit. As least, that was what they thought."Thank you for today,""I really see no need for you to thank me, I did it for Freya. If what I just told you would help in whatever way, then I have no problem." Dawn said."Hm, okay.""On another note, why you decided to walk me home is leaving me bewildered," she almost smiled at the end of her statement."You shouldn't be, I'm showing how grateful I really am." Samuel said. "Ashton is bent on finding this culprit that killed his sister and he is one of the people i wouldn't hesitate to do anything for. So take it as if you really did something for him and I'm showing you gratitude in his place." Said Samuel."What about your life outside all this, don't you have something or so

"What happened? What happened Thea? Tell me," he said."I was hit by a car Ashton. I'm sure you heard of all of this yet you play confused." She said.He shook his head. "I didn't know, I promise. When you didn't come, I left the next day, I thought you really didn't want to see me.""How could I not?" She told him. "I got into an accident Ash. One minute I was hit by a car and the next minute, I was at the hospital when I woke up," she swallowed. "When I woke up, it was gone. The doctor telling me that the child couldn't survive it.""After that my mother's ailment became worst I thought I was going to lose it." She said with pain constricting her gut. "If only you knew half of what I went through, the pain, the suffering, the loneliness..." she paused. "I never intended for this to happen."He didn't know what to do but to plant her head against his chest. A few things had been cleared from his chest."I shouldn't have doubted you," he said when the silence was disturbing. "I knew y

The day went by faster than they wanted and Thea found herself at the hospital in the night. She had to sign a few documents at the hospital. When Ash insisted that he came with her, she refused.Ashton walked to the kitchen to get a glass of water from the fridge. He took a large gulp before sealing it back. His eyes darted to the tray of cupcakes that sat on the kitchen counter immediately and he smiled as the memory came flushing in."Master Ryder?" The feminine voice called and he almost yelped in fear. How had he not notice that Mary would be home now. "Are you alright? You were smiling to yourself," she said to him and he just chuckled."I'm fine Maria, I'm just too happy that I can't keep my smile away.""But what could make you this happy-" she stopped herself then thought. "Oh my Gosh, don't tell me it's-""In more ways than one." He joked."You guys finally made up, I'm so happy." She squealed."I'm happy too Maria, I'm too happy that I fear this happiness won't last,""Don'

"I do," Thea said, her voice echoing the silent hall. Freya held her lips in excitement. 'Now, you have been called to love one another. With the power invested in me by the church and the word of God, I declare you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.' His hand went round her waist instantly bringing her close to him. He closed the gap between them without wasting any time, sealing their lips together in a deep kiss. Absent minded to the never ending cheering of the crowd, they sealed their newly founded bond. When he finally let go, they were taking deep breaths, paying for the lost ones."Hey," he said. She smiled back immediately, muttering something similar to a 'hi'.---Clinging unto his arms, she smiled at the guests that greeted hem warmly. "Mr and Mrs Ryder, what a pleasure," Ashton shook hands with the CEO of Vogue. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Gabriel," Ashton said immediately.He pulled him forward for a hug but then whispered, "You caught a beautiful

Ashton opened the wardrobe where he usually kept his things, searching earnestly for something. How could he be so careless to have lost it?He combed his hair in frustration. An hour ago, he found out that her promise necklace still hung around her neck like she never took it off, while his, was somewhere in the house. He shut the wardrobe as quietly as he could so he wouldn't wake her up.He walked out of the room, trying to remember where he was with it last."Master?"The young man turned immediately to the soft voice of his maid."Maria," he said. For a moment there, they stared at each other. Her, trying to figure what he was doing up by this hour of the night. She stared right at his worried face. How was he going to explain to her that he misplaced their matching necklace?"Did I wake you up?""No, no you didn't. I was going to fill up my jug of water...tell me Ashton, what bothers you?" She said to him but he shook his head."It's nothing, get some sleep.""Are you in search

"Father?" The voice sent chills to their spine. Ashton walked into the sitting room with Thea trailing behind him. He just couldn't believe his ears, he wasn't sure he heard right.Ashton halted in his steps. "Is it true? You sleep around.""So you believe a common woman. She came here to tell lies about me and you all believe her?" Austin blurted out."Is it true or not?" "Of course it's not! She's only a liar who wants to ruin my family because I couldn't make one with her," Ashton scoffed. "How can you even say such a thing? It wasn't mistake that you have a son with her, you filled her mind with empty promises and now you speak Ill about her?""She was the one fooling around with me and why are you even defending her? She's just one of them, she was just a whore looking for who to please then." Ashton recoiled in shock at his father's words. "Whether she was a whore or not, she carried your child and she deserves your respect!" Ashton blurted out too. "I'll have you know that I

Alicia Saunders stood before Austin now, in anger."Why didn't you just let us leave?" She retorted. "If we would have left, my son wouldn't be dead. He was the only one I had left." Alicia blurted out."Why do you always take everything away from me? You took my freedom and now you take my only source of joy!" She screamed."What is going on here?" Elizabeth questioned, as she strolled into the sitting room. The guards that would've stopped her form gaining entrance into his home when she blatantly told them that she wanted to see Mr. Ryder whether he wanted to or not, stood far behind them witnessing the whole scene."Nothing Lisa-" Austin tried."Oh there's something. Till how long will you keep hiding it." Alicia yelled at him."You be quiet!" Austin snapped."Who do you think you are to come into my house and yell at my husband?" Elizabeth icily said.The woman walked closer to Elizabeth. Lisa raised a brow at her in question. "You really do not know?" Alicia asked but then said.

Thea stirred in her sleep, but she was restricted in her movements. She winced in pain as her vision now became clear after being blurry and weak."Hmm, you're awake." That deep voice made her pause. She turned in alert to the source of the voice. She sat up, dragging herself backwards till her back connected with the wall."Jace," she whispered to herself and the hair at the back of her head stood."Hello to you too, Thea." Jace said.Thea's eyes widened when she was connected to. "Jace, Jace please..." she now reeked of sweat and her fingers trembled in fear.

He did nothing but stare at her trembling form."Do you like my present? I knew it would surprise you when you woke up.""Jace, a bomb?

Ashton barged into ward in hurry, swiftly followed by Thea."Sam?" Thea called with concern laced in her tone. Samuel sat up with his back against the wall."Samuel you are alright?" Ashton said sitting besides him. "Thank God you didn't die,""I am, I just got hit mildly. Just a sprain on the ankle." Samuel said."You got hit!" Thea stressed out."I was heading over to my car when this car came from nowhere. Thankfully, I was able to get out of the way in time." Samuel said."Samuel did you see the plate of the car?"Samuel looked at Ashton for some seconds before saying. "That isn't important,""How can you say that it isn't important-""Jace is in town!" Samuel blurted out and Ashton frowned."What?!" Ashton was forced to blurt."Jace Lockhart is in town, we got a report, he was at the market place today. I wanted to get to you so you and Thea could leave the city before nightfall." Samuel said to him."You are avoiding the topic still, you know who hit you, tell me!""Ashton, when

Tap!Ashton looked up from the file he was holding to stare at the lady walking around his work space. A mini-library to be precise."Which one will I pick?" She muttered to herself. His attention went back to the documents in his hand. His own moved, as if signing something then he let it down in the table again."I think this one is better-"He cleared his throat intruding in the conversation she was having with herself. "You won't find anything interesting in there, I am not a fan of romance novels.""Oh my, as if I didn't know." She picked a random book from the shelve and sat before him crossing her legs."You want to read in here?" He asked her in surprise."Can't i? Is something here that I'm not supposed to see? Do you do something in private that-""Just stop,""But,""You can read in here if you want, I was only asking." He cleared his throat before getting occupied again."Do you think I should get my hands manicured?" She said after a while."Since when do you even do thos
