2023-08-17 00:01:27Jude POV
“Who’s getting arrested?” I ask as I can hear the conversation between Benny and Bonnie. They are not as quiet as they think they are. I look at them and then Bonnie speaks first, saying she needs my help. Benny is ready to protest, but she stops him from speaking. She is adorable when she is bossy like that. Maybe she would like to boss me around. I definitely wouldn’t mind that. Well, I would prefer for her to submit it to me, but if she wants to try, I’ll definitely give it a go.
“I need your money,” Bonnie says and I have to admit I am taken by surprise by that. She never seemed interested in money. I frown, looking at her, and then she explains. That bastard left the hotel expenses for her to pay. What kind of man does that? Well. He is not a man, he is a fucking weasel and I will make sure that he rots in hell.
“You can ever ask a lawyer to get a document and I will sign anything,” Bonnie says

Bonnie POVI am the first to go up the stairs and get onto the Jet. I smile as I look around. Everything is cream and leather. It smells great inside and the air hostess is standing at the end of the plane, smiling.“Good evening,” she says as she sees me and I smile.“Hello,” I say as Benny and Jude follow me. Benny takes an armchair on the right side of the Jet. Before he puts his case in storage, he retrieves his laptop, phone, and Airpods. Jude does exactly the same, and I watch as they go into problem-solving mode.I feel horrible about this. I feel like my life has been turned upside down not by me, but by someone who didn’t deserve the time of day. He is spreading lies and making everyone believe I am the bad guy in this story. I know Jude and Benny will make things better. But I hate that my hands are tied and whatever I do will make it worse for me.I am an independent woman that right now is without a choice

Bonnie POVI open my eyes when I felt something moving between my legs. I blink several times and then I realize what is happening. I am lying down on my front, my left leg is bent on my side and I can feel Jude on the end of the bed moving his fingers between my folds. I stretch my arms and adjust myself, giving him better access, and his hand finds my clit.I let out a small gasp when he pinches my clit and I can almost see stars. I am still sore and extremely sensitive. His touch is making my entire body feel alive again like I have been resting for weeks. His fingers move with such precision inside of me that makes me wonder how many women he has touched like this.“Fuck.” I hiss as I feel him moving and his tongue licks my sensitive skin around my pussy.“Turn around,” he says, and I do as he says. My muscles complain with the movement I keep pushing. I open my legs as Jude positions himself at the end of the bed. He kneels on

Jude POVBonnie looks exhausted and I have to say I am smiling on the inside knowing that she will be sore for days and she won’t be able to forget me, or what I did to her on this jet.The jet is landing in New York and Richard is setting up a press conference for Bonnie to tell her story and I'm revealing documents about the man.“Thank you for today,” I say to the captain as I shake his hand.“My pleasure, sir,” he says, and I smile. Bonnie and Benny were already getting into the car when Benny picked them up. Looking around, I find the car Richard sent for me and when I walk to it, his driver gets out of the car and opens the door for me.“Mr. Ashford,” he says and I nod once sliding into the back of the car finding Richard there. He has dark circles under his eyes. He looks exhausted.“You look terrible. Have you slept at all?” I ask and he yawns, shaking his head.“Arch

Bonnie POVAs I open my eyes, I can see my mother looking at me. I almost have a heart attack. I stand up immediately on the bed and I press both my hands against my chest. “Mom, you scared me,” I say, and she shakes her head. She is sitting on the edge of the bed, just looking at me.“Why are you here? What time is it?” I ask as I look around, trying to find my phone.“Are you looking for this?” She says as she holds my phone and I nod.“So, Jude?” She says and I frown. What the hell?“What are you talking about?” I stand up and snatch my phone from her hands and she keeps her eyes on me as I walk to the window and open the curtains, letting the sun peek through.“I am not stupid Bonnie, your father, and your brother might be clueless, but I am not all of these rumors flying around, and the woman that sliced your face. It’s all because of him, isn’t it?” She

Bonnie POV “Answer,” Jude says, and I press the green button. “Are you okay? Are you with Richard?” Benny asks, and I look at Jude before I lick my lips. “Yes, and Dylan and Jude,” I say, and he stays quiet. “Jude’s there?” He asks. “I didn’t know where to go, so I came here, and Jude was here,” I say laying. Jude keeps his eyes on the floor as he rests his elbows on his legs, leaning forward. “Okay, let me speak to him,” Benny says, and my eyes go wide. “Erm, why? What do you want with him?” I ask, and Jude raises his head and looks at me. He sits back on the chair and stretches his arm, asking for the phone. “Just put him on the phone,” Benny says. “Benny wants to talk to you,” I say, placing the phone in Jude’s hand. He stands up immediately, walking to the window with one hand in his pocket. “Yes, I know,” Jude says. I wish I could hear their conversation. I walk to Jude and wrap my arms around his w

Jude POV“Benny,” I hear Bonnie shout as she runs to him, trying to grab his arm as he gets ready to punch me again. He moves his arm violently to get rid of her grip and Bonnie falls on her ass. I take one step towards her, but his eyes move from her to me once again and my brothers move faster than me. Richard stands between Benny and me while Dylan offers a hand and Bonnie takes it to help her stand up.“She was a child. How could you?” Benny shouts again and I look at Bonnie, that has a tear rolling down her face as she looks at me. This is on me, and I can accept that. I had sex with her when she was eighteen and she will always be a kid in Benny’s eyes. She is his baby sister.“It happened,” I say, and his eyes go wild as Richard looks at me. I can’t tell him that she came looking for me. I can’t tell him how it really happened. I rather take the blame for everything that drags Bonnie with me or makes h

Bonnie POV“That’s it, you were great. Thank you for answering all the questions,” Penny says, and I smile. Penny was great at interviewing me. She knew exactly what to ask, and she didn’t go rogue once, and yes, some of the questions were very hard to answer.“Thank you, you were great too,” I say as we both stand and I walk to Jude that is now smiling at me. Benny didn’t come back after Jude went after him. I know I will never hear the end. He will torture me for years to come.“You’re amazing,” Jude says as he wraps one protective arm around my waist and kisses me on the top of the head while Richard is on the phone with someone.“He’s seen it, and he is fuming. Are you ready for the backlash?” Richard asks and I nod. I have Jude by my side, so I am ready for everything.They are all outside the building. I recommend you leave through the garage in Jude’s car,&rd

Bonnie POV I'm Bonnie Walton. You may have seen me in a recent live interview. Something happened during the interview that has caused some curiosity. So I thought I would come live and tell you a little about myself.” I say as I look at Dylan’s phone. I can feel my hands trembling and Jo sits next to me, holding my hand. “As you all know, I was accused of things I would never do, but I did one thing: I did cheat on Peter. I am not proud of myself, but I think you should all know. What you saw today between me and Jude Ashford is not recent,” I say, and Jo nods her head, smiling. “I met Jude when I was twelve, and as a girl discovering she likes a boy, I thought he was the most beautiful man I had ever seen. Jude is my brother’s best friend. They met in college and they became attached to the hip. He used to come to our house during summer breaks, and sometimes even during the holidays. I used to be so excited every time my parents would set up the guest room

Jude POV“Where are we going?” I ask as Fred smiles. I can see the mischief in his eyes.“You’re going to love it,” Dylan says and I take a deep breath as Richard places a cigar between his lips and lights it up while shaking his head slightly.“I don’t think he will love it, and I honestly think he will rip your head off,” Richard says and Fred shakes his head as he retrieves the cigar from Richard’s mouth.“Shut up,” Fred says as the limousine stops and the door opens while he keeps the cigar between his lips and Richard retrieves another one from his suit inside jacket.“Hello boys,” I hear two women say as they get in the car. Their skirts are so short they leave nothing to the imagination. Dylan smiles and winks as Fred opens his arms and the girls sit next to him, one under each of his arms as he hugs them against his body. Dylan moves quickly, grabbing the cigar an

Bonnie POV“What time are you meeting Carly?” Benny asks and I take a deep breath, closing my eyes.“In about one hour,” I say, and he nods as he keeps his eyes locked on his laptop. I am sitting in front of him, but he hasn’t looked at me once.“Okay, why did you call me here? You haven’t even looked at me,” I say and he closes his laptop, resting his hands on it. Benny bites his lips, looking at me, and I raise an eyebrow.“I am going to ask Trish to marry me again,” Benny says and I smile sitting forward on the chair as I look at him.“Oh, that’s great,” I say, and he nods. He looks at his hands and I realize there’s more to it than what he is letting on. “And?” I say.“She is pregnant, we just found out,” he says and I smile, standing up and walking to him to hug him. “But it’s not mine,” he finally says and I sto

Bonnie POV “Are you ready for this? We can just stay outside,” Jude tells me and I shake my head. I am not waiting outside when Peter is being judged by what he has done to me. Jude gathered all the information needed for everything he had done, using my phone and booking everything in London with my name, then what he did in Jude’s building. Everything built up and now here we are. Waiting to know what is going to happen. More people joined my lawsuit when it was announced through the media. He has stolen a lot of money from people; he committed fraud in three different countries and now he is going to pay for it. If it was a family without money, things wouldn’t be happening so fast, but because the Ashford name is involved, things are happening fast. Faster than I ever thought possible. “No, I want to face him,” I say and he nods as he holds my hand while we walk through the corridor. There he is, with his lawyer, while Julien walks next to me. Jude though

Bonnie POV“I can’t, I’m going to be late,” I say over my shoulder as I walk out of the bedroom and down the stairs.“But you said you would do it in the mornings before work,” Jude says as he follows me. I roll my eyes, avoiding answering him. We have been biting each other’s heads off lately, and I know that is mostly because of my hormones.“Bonnie, please stop,” he says, grabbing my arm. I turn around, looking at him, snatching my arm back, and then cross them in front of my chest.“You know today is a very important day for me, I have the Vogue photoshoot, and then I have the trial, so please Jude, don’t start a fight with me right now,” I say and he takes a deep breath as he walks to me resting his hands on my hips.“I am just trying to help you,” he tells me and I shake my head, as I can’t believe he is using that argument right now.“Yeah,

Jude POV“Good morning,” I say as soon as Bonnie opens her eyes. She squints her eyes a little as the sun is shining through the window and when her eyes land on mine I smile, watching as she stretches her arms above her head and then places a small kiss on my lips.“Good morning. How are you feeling? Do you need me to help you up?” She starts bombarding me with questions, and I close my eyes for a few seconds. Bonnie has been taking care of me nonstop. Even when the nurses are around, she refuses to leave my side, and I am terrified she will be doing too much.“I am good, I have been to the bathroom,” I say, and she bites her lower lip as she looks at me and I smile as I rub my thumb over her plump lips.“You should’ve called me,” she says and I shake my head as I watch her. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on, and I can’t believe she is mine.It took us ten years to

Jude POV“Come, let me help you up,” Mom says and I shake my head.“I am okay mother, I am not an invalid,” I say and she shakes her head as she rests one hand over her beating heart and Bonnie looks at me as if I am a monster.“Don’t look at me like that. I have been stuck in this bed for far too long. I just want to go home,” I say and Bonnie looks at my mom and then back at me. They both look guilty as fuck. “What is going on?” I ask.“Well, as Bonnie is pregnant, and she is going through the horrible sickness in the morning, and you will need supervision, we thought the both of you could move into your old room, and stay with me until you’re recovered and ready to go back to your normal life,” my mom says and I can’t help but chuckle.“No, not happening, I am not a child anymore that needs his mommy taking care of him. We will go to our house,” I say and B

Bonnie POVJude is out of surgery, and I keep waiting for news. His mother and brothers are there and I feel extremely guilty for being in his house like a doll waiting for the phone to ring. And it does. I answer it straight away.“Bonnie, he is awake and asking for you,” Dylan says on the other side of the line.“Oh my God, how is he?” I ask as I walk to the door, putting my shoes on. I look around, trying to find my jacket, but I have no clue where I put it. I swear I left it here yesterday. I shrug, walking back into the bedroom to get another one.“He is okay, moody as ever, and asking to see you,” he says, and I smile.“I’m on my way. I’ll get an Uber and I will be there as soon as possible,” I tell Dylan before we end the call and I make all the arrangements to go see Jude. Things have been a kind of manic for me, after Jude being in the hospital, Carly being an only fans girl and H

Bonnie POVI have done what Jude asked me. I am home, sitting on the couch, waiting for Carly and Harlow to arrive. I made them both promise not to speak about Parker. I am in need of my friends and I definitely can’t deal with any crap that is going on between them.The door chimes and I jump. I stand up, ready to open the door, but I realize it was the phone that connects to the doorman.“ Miss Walton, there’s someone here to see you,” he tells me, and I take a deep breath.“I thought I had authorized Carly and Harlow to come up,” I say, and he takes a deep breath on the other side.“Yes you did ma’am, but it’s not them, it’s a Mr. Styles, he says it is important,” the doorman tells me and I stop breathing for a couple of seconds.“He is not allowed up, tell him I don’t want to talk to him, and if he insists threaten him with police,” I say and I can tell the doorm

Bonnie POV “Hi my dear, how is he?” Camila asks as she approaches me while I sit in the waiting room. We’ve been here for more than one hour and no one has come out to say anything. “I don’t know, I am sorry,” I say as the tears roll down my cheeks and Camila pulls me into a tight embrace. I never thought I would get a close relationship with Jude’s mother. I always heard she was cold and distant, but this is not that type of woman. “Bonnie, where is he?” I hear Dylan’s voice behind me, accompanied by footsteps. I pull away from their mother’s embrace and look over my shoulder to see Jude’s brothers all standing behind me. They all look as worried as I feel. “He’s through those doors,” I say, pointing at the glass double doors and Richard nods as he walks to them and presses the button to open the doors. “You can’t go there, staff only,” I say and he ignores what I say and walks in. Dylan and Fred sit next to me while their mother sits on the other si
