ASHLEY'S REBIRTH のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

Ashley/Olivia's POVI swallowed hard I had just attracted trouble for myself. The two figure sitting before me, sat there, waiting for an answer an, explanation to what I meant by saying I was not Olivia. "Uh.. Well..."I gulped, wondering what to tell Lance and Eloise. A part of me was telling me to just walk away without trying to defend myself and that they would not take it seriously. I wanted to walk out because I just yelled at him and so why would I bring myself to stammering and apologizing? I decided to just walk away but not without some words, " please let me be." the please sounded like an instruction given to ones subject. "I've lost my appetite. Excuse me. " I said and stood up to leave. Lance hesitated a moment but then nodded slowly in response. I don't know why he nodded. Was he giving me the permission to leave when I already give myself one? His face was sullen. Eloise who was sitting beside him also had the same look on her face. I smiled triumphantly an

Lance's POV My wife's situation was out of hand. She made me feel like a total stranger. I would have made a fool of myself if I had not pretended to know about it before Greg. It is not that I don't want her to resume her position but this all came up out of the blue. We had agreed she wasn't going to take up the position until she was ready. I was more than shocked tonight. "She made a fool of me and I had no say. What's wrong with you Lance? Get a hold of yourself." I said to myself, admist trying to close up the hurt spot in my heart."Aren't you a man? Why are you sulking over a mate you possess? Just give it to her the way she wants it. Avoid her, act cold and I am sure she would come back to her senses." a voice said in my head. But I wasn't the type to do such kind of thing especially to the most dearest person to me. I may be able to act cold to my enemies outside but I can't you so in my home. I shook off the thought."Since she would be resuming her duty tomorrow, th

Ashley/ Olivia's POV I felt chills from that kiss. I could not control it. I would say it just happened. I was probably in a trance and I need to get my acts together.I heaved a heavy sigh, feeling the spark I had felt ignite, vanish."Well, what did you find?" Lola's question helped me push the last thought of the kiss I was having out of my head."Nothing much. They aren't much secret there. Just a vast layout of books on the shelf and important pack materials." I replied her, a little bit frustrated I wasn't making any significant progress on this aspect. My body has been getting sufficient training but getting information was not easy. I was a lone woman standing with no aide. I had asked for Lance permission to use in study because I thought I could gather any information even if it was something minute."I wish I could do this openly, it would have been easier.""How about the Second Plan?" Lola asked."What plan? Oh no! Don't bring that up again Lola. I don't even kn

Ashley/ Olivia's POV I saw a thin line spread across Eloise lips, it parted and then a sound came out. She was laughing. I looked at her bewildered. Why was she laughing? I know the question came to her unexpectedly but I didn't think she would burst out laughing that way."I am so so..rry sorry." she said, still trying to control her torrent of laughter. She finally got a grip of herself and inhaled a lot of air before she spoke up."I am sorry I laughed so much. I did not know what to do. You know, it's funny for you to think that way darling. Why would I betray our relationship as friends and then hook up with Lance?""Betray? An incoming betrayal from a friend doesn't need to be announced publicly. With what I have gone through, it's hard to trust anyone especially a best friend. They are ones worst enemy." I scoffed and thought aloud in my head."Let me clear this darling, I'm not in a secret relationship with your husband. Neither do I have a thing for him. He's definitely n

Ashley/Olivia's POV"Damn! Why does this thing have to come this time?" I cursed silently under my breath."Are you okay, dear? What's wrong with your stomach?" He asked, looking at me in a way that made my stomach flutter from another kind of excitement and not pain."Is it a poisonous pain? I am worried it may the poison. The knife may have been laced with a kind of poison I could b I t detect.""Poison?" I shot him a funny look at his quick conclusion on the cause of the pain.How could I tell him it was the thing with women every month? My monthly flow came easier than expected and in this situation of all times."I am okay. It's not any poison. It's just a sharp pain I felt but it's okay now." I lied through my teeth.The lie did not hold up long as the pain came up again, this time much stronger than the last. I clutched at my abdomen tightly, beads of sweat forming on my forehead. My face grew pale.I could not walk or even stand on my own.Lance shot me a grin and lifted me up
