"Those bastards!" she yells."I knew they didn't approve of Ashley but to do something like that," Sandra says, shaking her head."I hate to tell you this but five years ago I told you that you would come to regret it but you didn't listen to me. You told me that it would never happen and look now."
The billionaires heirs Ashley... It's finally Friday and here I am getting ready for a charity ball. Jason asked me if I would go with one of his colleagues to the charity ball, saying the man needs someone to make his ex jealous. I couldn't say no to Jason since he was always there for me. And besides, I need some kind of distraction after the news I received a week ago. It feels like I am always taking one step forward and three steps backward. I put on a black floor-length dress. I curled my hair and pinched the top half down. I put on my heels, touched up my makeup, checked myself in the mirror one last time and headed downstairs.To be honest, I was scared to go at first because I know Adrian always attends charity balls but Jason assured me that he wouldn't be there. I know he is looking for me but until now he still hasn't, thanks to my parents and Sandra. Flashback five months ago... My phone rang and I picked it up, seeing Sandra's name appear on the screen."Hey Sandy,"
The billionaires heirs Ashley... "Fine, you win." "So, where is my so-called date?" I asked, looking around the table, when I only saw Jason and Freddie."He will be here soon, he said, running a bit late." I nodded my head and took a seat next to Jason, sipping champagne as the three of us talked.Half an hour later, my so-called date shows up.Jason introduced me to the man, Billy. He is tall and he looks handsome. He has brown hair and brown eyes."You look even more beautiful in person," he says. "Thank you; you look good yourself." I'm bad at this; why did I agree to this? I haven't flirted with or talked to another man in five years, if you count my family and friends out. The last time I talked or flirted with a man was when I was with him.I turn around, wanting to ask Jason if I can go, when I feel a hand on my shoulders. "Ashley." A man cuts off Billy as he begins to speak. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here tonight. I would like to introduce a special gue
The billionaires heirs Adrian... I put on my blue shirt and black dress pants that I packed for this charity ball. I button up my shirt and put a tie around my neck. I walk out of my hotel room. The charity is being hosted by Harry, my best friend. I always donate money to the less fortunate and when Harry asked me to come, I didn't want to at first but then he said Jason would be there and that it would be a great time to ask him about Ashley's whereabouts. I made sure they didn't put my name on the list, knowing Jason could find out that I'm the host.The black Mercedes is waiting for me at the entrance of the hotel. Sam, my driver, opens the door for me and I slide in. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and saw a message from my sister.Sally: Please call me. I decided to ignore her and check my emails from my assistant telling me about my appointment with Mr. Clark next week. I replied to her, saying she should confirm and send me the details. I close my phone and look out o
The billionaires heirs Ashley... The morning came fast and before I knew it, the sunlight was shining through my windows. I didn't sleep well last night, not after seeing him. I thought that he wouldn't be there but the minute I saw him on stage, I knew I had to get out of there. My father wanted to know what happened last night but I told him I would tell him later. Luckily, he understood. I looked at the time and saw that it was already past nine. I got up and did my morning routine before heading downstairs.Isabella and Ashton are sitting in front of the television, eating what seems like pancakes. I guess Jason came by."Hey guys," I say. They both stop eating and look at me."Good morning, mommy," they say, shifting up, and I go to sit down next to them. "Good morning, babe," Jason says as he walks up to me."How are you feeling?" "Okay, I guess," I sigh."Call me if you need anything or if that bastard shows up, I will teach him a lesson," Jason says and I chuckle."I will,
The billionaires heirs Ashley... Once I made sure she was out of sight, I looked at Adrian, and he looked pissed.I roll my eyes. "What do you want, Adrian?" "You have kids?" He asked, shocked."Yes, now tell me what you want, as you can see my kids are waiting for me," I snapped."How could you do it? I gave you my everything and yet you still went and broke your promise," he said and that just made me more angry. "Look, I don't care what you believe or don't believe. I have said everything I wanted five years ago, so don't you dare come back into my life and start that bullshit again!" I whispered and yelled at him, not wanting my children to listen to our fight."I know you didn't do anything," he said, running his hand through his hair."The pictures and video were all fake. I also know you didn't hurt your sister." "What picture? What video?" I asked with a frown."The pictures that made me think you cheated on me." "I don't care, Adrian; you believed someone else instead of
The billionaires heir Ashley... I went to my bedroom, laid on the bed and closed my eyes as I let the tears roll down freely."Mommy!" I hear my daughter's voice waking me up.I open my eyes and close them again, shielding them from the morning light. "Good morning, princess." I smiled and watched her get onto the bed."Mommy, are you going to make us some pancakes?" She asked, taking the covers off my body."Yes, baby. Are your brothers up yet?" I asked her, sitting up."No, he is too lazy to get up," she says, rolling her eyes. "Okay, why don't you wake him up and brush your teeth while I get ready? Maybe we could grab some breakfast at Uncle Jake's Cafe?" I suggest not feeling like cooking."Yes!" Bella yells, jumping off and running to her brother.After we were ready, I buckled the kids in their car seats and drove off to the cafe."Good morning, dear." Uncle Jake greets us as soon as we enter."Good morning, Uncle Jake." I greet him with a smile.Once we were seated, he asked,
The billionaires heirs Ashley... This whole week has been hectic. I had four birthday parties that I had to cater for and if that wasn't enough, he was always on my mind. From the moment I opened my eyes until I lay down to sleep, even then he still haunts me.Ever since he came back, I couldn't stop thinking about him. Why can't he just leave us alone?"Isabella! Ashton!" I called the kids, not wanting to dwell on him anymore than I had already done this past week. "Yes,mommy?" They came rushing into the kitchen."What are you two up to?" "Nothing; we are drawing pictures," Bella says, showing the crayon."Okay, how about you eat first, then you can draw again?" I said, placing their burgers on the counter."Yes, burgers!" Ashton yells, running to the chair. He loves his burgers.Bella placed her picture next to her and started eating her food but I caught her and Ash looking at the picture and then whispering to each other. I wonder what they are up to now. "Mommy?" Ash asked, l
