last update Last Updated: 2025-01-26 09:06:12

Lily stared at the blog scandal, anger and jealousy ravaging her very core.

It was bad enough that Christopher had taken Aimee to the event instead and even given his phone to her to take his calls, making him unavailable when she needed him the most, but to spend the night at her apartment was something else.

”Don’t feel too comfortable.”

Those were the exact words of Aimee Landon to Lily on their wedding day, and it was obvious now that something was going on between them. Lily was angry and jealous, and she could not tell if it was because she was developing feelings for Christopher Bridger, or because it was a ridicule to her personality as his wife. Christopher was obviously not attracted to Lily, because he thought he was seeing Ashley, and their marriage was simply a flipping contract, but then again, they never made any agreement about freedom to cheat and live a life of infidelity, so yes, Lily had every right to feel slighted.

Lily was certain that Aimee Landon would be

    Christopher was more than furious, especially with the news making the rounds. Who the heck was peddling such lies about him?! Yes, he went into Aimee’s apartment, but it had merely been to switch off her alarm, and even though she had embarrassed herself, nothing untoward had happened, but what the news insinuated was that Christopher had extra-marital affair with Aimee, and that was a deadly scandal that was bad enough to spoil things for him.“Trisha! Trisha!” Christopher called in exasperation. “Where has she gone?” Christopher asked himself.He couldn’t recall whether or not he noticed Trisha there when he arrived at work because he had come in as a furious man; the blog news was the first thing he had seen this morning when he woke up, and his entire mood had taken a downward flop. Angrily, Christopher matched out of his office and stormed off to Trisha’s desk. Unfortunately, it was vacant.“Isn’t it too early in the day to leave her desk?!” Christopher bellowed, his thundering

    Aimee smiled coyly; she knew damn well that her plans would work!She knew that she had messed up, and knowing Christopher, he would be thinking of firing her. Aimee deliberately did not go to the company, because she knew that if she showed up there, Christopher would humiliate her by firing her in the presence of everyone.She would not be able to take that.So the very minute that Christopher had left her apartment last night, she had made a call and swung into action.“One thing you should know, Christopher Bridger, is that I am not like any other woman you have ever met,” Aimee said to herself.She had always been smart, right from when she was a little girl. Granted, she had fallen head over heels in love with Christopher Bridger, but sticking by his side all these years even though Christopher tried to push her away several times just as he had done his other friends, had been for a reason. If she hadn’t remained glued to Christopher, she would not have been a senior staff at o

    They arrived at the press room about two hours later after Aimee had returned into her apartment and freshened up.When she had entered her apartment, she had danced happily; all traces of sadness and hurt due to Christopher’s stark rejection to her seduction flown out through the window.Christopher Bridger had referred to the company as theirs! He had actively included Aimee in the company for the very first time since she began to work for Christopher. That was all the reassurance and boost that Aimee needed.“Welcome, Mr. Bridger and Miss Aimee,” the presswoman greeted.Christopher had had to pay a hefty amount of money to secure a press release that same day, because he knew how important it was to do damage control as quickly as possible. If he delayed, his business associates would withdraw the contracts they were yet to sign with him, his company would crumble to the ground, and he would be forgotten like he never existed in the entire country.“Thank you,” Christopher said, a

    Lily liked the look of shock that she saw in Christopher’s eyes. This was the very first time that she was getting a reaction out of him that wasn’t anger. “Ashley?” Christopher asked, as though he was seeing a ghost.Lily would have been disturbed by that, but the woman that constantly forgot her role as Ashley Grander in Christopher’s life which made her constantly trip or shoot herself in the leg was gone. Now, Lily was more than ready to do the right thing, because some factors had prompted her to.“That’s me, Christopher,” Lily said, her words slurring. Then she got off the bed, ensuring that she made all the right moves.When Lily arrived at the house, it had been as though she was entering a strange place, or maybe it was because she was entering as Ashley Grander for the very first time, and not Lily Bashwood who was struggling to get into character. Just as she had planned it, she had arrived when Christopher was away at work, so that she would have ample time to do what she

    The deep intensified as Lily used her teeth to subtly and gently part Christopher’s mouth open, and Christopher did so with abandon. They kissed, deeply and passionately, and in that moment, it seemed as though Lily was in a different world entirely. Their tongues intertwined, their lips locked, and they tasted each other completely. Lily wasn’t expecting that she would be this good with kissing Christopher, because she had never kissed a man before, but more importantly, she never knew that kissing him would taste this good and make her entire body tingle with pleasure. Then Christopher lifted Lily effortlessly and took her towards the bed. Lily already suspected how it was going to end, because the kiss and Christopher’s strong hands around her set her entire body on fire. She wanted Christopher Bridger to take her in that moment, but her heart beat even with all the lust and desire. Lily Bashwood had never been intimate with a man before and regardless of how she felt in Christ

    It was a splendid night for Aimee Landon, and she woke up with a great mood, so much so that she practically danced like a happy princess as she went about her morning routine, from brushing her teeth to making her coffee, and of course, having breakfast of toast and jam. “Today is a perfect day!” Aimee sang to herself. The previous day had gone way better than she had expected. The press release, although not what Aimee would have wanted in a lifetime, was released almost immediately after, and those companies that were threatening to withdraw their contracts from Christopher’s company retraced her steps, and that was coupled with the fact that Aimee had also texted her source and asked her to take down the post about Christopher going into her apartment. Who could play the game this good? Definitely no one else! All that had happened had put Christopher in a better mood, and because he had been in a better mood, he was more than cordial with her.

    Aimee ground her teeth in annoyance at the rude interruption, because she could not understand why Trisha would show up at her house as early as possible in the morning, shatter her very expensive window, and call her a bitch.“What is going on there?” Derek asked over the phone, making Aimee recall that she was even still on a call to Derek. “Are you okay? Is everything alright?” Derek continued to ask.“Let me call you back, Derek,” Aimee said and ended the call before Derek could say anything.Then she opened her front door and stood confidently and fearlessly before Trisha was who standing in the middle of her compound.“How did you know my house?” Aimee could not help but ask.She crossed her hands over her chest and looked at Trisha, fuming with anger. This was the exact reason she hated dealing with people of Trisha’s caliber, because they always had a way of acting irrationally and crazily.“Did you think you could hide from me?” Trisha asked and Aimee burst into laughter almo

    “What?!” Lily was stunned and afraid and alert.Her mind instantly went to Monk and Don Grander’s threats that they would kill Joe if she failed on any of her tasks.“Yeah, and it was pretty weird. It made me feel uncomfortable,” Joe said over the phone.She could feel the discomfort in his voice, and Lily’s heart broke into more pieces. She even began to wonder how much heartache she could take at once.“I really wish you were here, Lily; I feel safe with you around,” Joe said warmly and sadly. “It has been over a year, and this is beginning to look creepy to me. Even Rudney does not exactly know where you are,” Joe admitted.Lily did not think that Joe would think too deeply about everything. She hadn’t even really been thinking about Joe and how her absence might have affected him. More tears dropped from Lily’s eyes in pain and regret. If only she could tell Joe exactly what was going on, but then again, she did not even have the liberty of brooding about that for so long, because

    Lily felt like she had been hit with a ton of bricks at the harshness and cruelty of Christopher’s words, and when she managed to look into his eyes, she could see all the emotions right there.“Let me say what I came here to tell you, please,” Lily begged deeply.“How did you manage to bleed like a virgin when everyone knows that you are not, huh?” Christopher asked bitterly and angrily.Lily opened her mouth to say that it was because she was a virgin, but no words came out of her mouth, and Christopher mistook Lily’s inability to say the words as guiltiness.Christopher shook his head. “You are my worst mistake, Ashley, and I blame myself for not fighting this arrangement when I was told. After this party, you are going to return to your father’s house discreetly until this whole crap of a marriage is over; I never want to see your face again,” Christopher said firmly.Lily squeezed her eyes shut as the words sliced through her heart. She felt like Christopher had literally taken a

    Lily could not wrap her head around everything that the old maid had revealed to her.Ashley Grander was alive, and no one knew!A tiny part of Lily was relieved that she was, because after all she had found out about her, it just didn’t sound fair that she would have been murdered. Indeed, she played her game well. Another tiny part of Lily wanted to see Ashley, the only girl in the world that looked almost like her, but according to what the old maid said, Ashley was in a far away country where no one knew her and with a new identity. She was living with the old maid’s distant relative, and to ensure that she is completely safe, she and the old maid had had to keep off communicating.Ashley Grander was smarter than anyone Lily had ever met.Thinking away from her now, Lily thought about herself. As much as she was relieved that Ashley wasn’t truly dead after all the evil that surrounded her, she had been the unfortunate person forced into living her life, doing her job, and cleaning

    “What?” Lily was stupefied.She could not believe that she had been played so well, but then again, a lot of questions were already running through her mind. Now, nothing seemed clear and she needed it to be, so she sat back down again.“You knew from the beginning that I wasn’t Ashley,” Lily stated.It was a statement that required an answered, a clarity of some sort.“Even if Ashley was truly dead, I would have known,” the old maid responded. “I raised her, you know,” she started as tears gathered in her eyes. “When her mother mysteriously and tragically passed, she was left in my care, and I loved and nurtured Ashley like she was my child. Do you know how heartbreaking it was for me to see her being constantly maltreated and punished?” The old maid asked.Lily could feel the raw pain in her heart as she spoke, and she shuddered at it.She would never be able to grasp the life of the wealthy and powerful. The more she thought she knew, the deeper the whole thing went. When she worke

    After Lily left Don Grander’s house, she could not afford to go back to Christopher’s mansion. There was still Hedge’s threat hanging over her head, but now, even Christopher’s life, reputation, and company are at stake here.Lily did not want anything to happen to Christopher Bridger at all.Then something struck Lily; to use Ashley’s phone to get across to the old maid! Why didn’t she even think of that all this while? She could not believe that she had allowed something as helpful as that escape her memory. She did not have enough time now, as the weekend event is just a few weeks away. Lily knew that Hedge wasn’t joking when he made a threat to Christopher’s life, because if he could release the sex video he had of Ashley, then he could certainly try to kill Christopher.The thought of it sent shivers down Lily’s spine.Thankfully, the old maid’s phone rang, and Lily waited with desperate anticipation for her to pick up.“Please pick up. Please pick up,” Lily prayed, and eventuall

    Lily could not stop thinking about what she read and the possibility of what might be. The thought of it made her really scared and confused.Was Ashley’s body found? What truly happened that made Don Grander and Emily believe that their daughter was dead?These questions disturbed Lily’s mind as Christopher’s driver drove her to Don Grander’s house. She would have loved to ask Don Grander these questions, but she knew him too well now. She knew that talking to him about it would raise suspicions, and if it did, he might want to get rid of her. The only person that Lily could have been able to ask without fear was the old maid, but she had been fired, and Lily did not know where to find her.“I have to find her by every means possible,” Lily told herself.Don Grander had to be the worst parent that Lily had ever known. How could a man treat his own daughter like that? Lily’s father might be dead, but when he was alive, he loved, provided for, and fiercely protected their mother along

    Lily went to the guestroom and pondered greatly. So after everything, Christopher meant it when he said he was going to reinstate Aimee, and not just that, he had picked her to plan an event as important as this one.Lily knew how important this was to Christopher, because she went with him on the business trip and she knew everything that happened there…or almost everything, and yet, it was Aimee Landon he chose.“What is it with him and Aimee?” Lily asked herself.She was frustrated, but she was downright jealous. Lily’s heart ached just thinking about it, and now, tears filled her eyes. She would never mean anything to a man like Christopher Bridger, whether as Ashley Grander or Lily Bashwood. Deep down, Lily wished that Christopher would at least like her, that is Bashwood’s daughter, but that was only a wild dream.Unfortunately, when Lily wasn’t even hoping to, she had fallen for Christopher Bridger.Why wouldn’t she fall in love with him? Christopher was the only man aside from

    Lily woke up in a different mood; Hedge’s threat was still hanging over her head, and she did not know the right approach to it, and then there was this business thing that Christopher asked her to get prepared for.Lily did not want to be a part of it whatsoever, majorly because of the presence of Mr. Yang, but she really did not have a choice. Ever since Don Grander kidnapped her and forced her into this life, she had not done anything of her own volition. Maybe she would just find something a little fitting and throw on, because her mind wasn’t really on it, or maybe she would feign sickness on that day to excuse her from attending.The landline in Christopher’s house rang, and Lily wondered if she should pick or not. It barely ever rang, so she could hardly tell. At the end of the day, Lily decided to ignore it, because she did not want to mess things up for Christopher, just in case she wasn’t supposed to take the call.A few minutes after the landline stopped ringing, Ashley’s p

    “Miss Aimee, your attention is required in the boardroom,” Christopher’s new secretary said to Aimee.Aimee had arrived at work in a jolly mood, certain that she had been able to manage every situation to the best of her knowledge. She was not even bothered about Derek, because she knew that he would be so busy fighting to win Trisha’s love back to even think of him.“Such an asshole,” Aimee cussed. “Who the heck falls in love with someone they ought to have killed?” Aimee scoffed.She should have known that Derek was incapable of tasks such as the ones she required of him. Anyway, Aimee was thinking about finding a more capable person that would carry out tasks without questions, delay, or even falling in love, when she got the message.“In the boardroom, right now?” Aimee asked, wanting to be sure if she heard correctly. Since Christopher demoted her without a conscience, she had not been asked to come to the boardroom, knowing that only the senior staff members were allowed in ther
