Chapter 50Ashley sat at the far end of the plane.She had rejected two drinks from Rob.She didn't want to talk to anyone. She didn't want anyone disturbing her at the moment.Rob had told her that it was all for the work.That Mikhail had fucked a woman just for work.Was she supposed to feel happy that it was just for work? Or was she to feel glad?She was angered to the core, sad, and felt very betrayed.He had lied to her.Last night..he had come to her, slept with her, and left to go to another woman.She was sure a fool.He never wanted her. He had just wanted to make sure she got pregnant so by the time he went to another woman and she were to get angry..his seed would be germinating in her. right?She cleaned her eyes for the umpteenth time.Her phone rang and she hung up seeing his name on the screen.He had hurt her so much and she would make sure he suffered for that.The plane came to a halt after it had driven slowly down the road.It was a private plane and thank God..t
Chapter 51Ashley frowned."I don't understand why you're asking me that Sir. Why is that your concern? You're supposed to do...ahhh, never mind." She huffed, rushing to her office and taking a seat.There was no need to hide what he had seen anyway.This was not the first time he had seen her in just panties.The first time had been in the hotel they had both booked in Italy.After she had returned to the hotel with him, she had taken a long bath in the bathroom and after that...she had gotten out of the bath with just her panties and her bra forgetting that she wasn't at home and was at the hotel.Recalling the incident made her feel weird.Just like how his eyes raked...he had stared at her as if he wanted to touch them but couldn't get close.'Shut up Sandra, and figure out how to do this. You can't go out looking like this. Damn it!' She mumbled r herself.The door opened and she looked up.What the hell did he want?"Let's go to the mall right now." He said and slammed the door
Chapter 52Ashley froze.The tears she had held for the past hours came rushing down like a waterfall.How could he come back after that mess?Yes, it was finally out of the internet but what about the saved ones? What about the ones that had been stored for the future?What about her?!"Ashley.' It came again.Slowly she stood up and turned to him.With anger and tears in her eyes, she turned to him and shrugged."What?" She asked.He was in sweatpants.This was the first time she had seen him like this.He was looking like he had chased a cow on his face."What do you want Mr. Mikhail Mazza? Just tell me the hell too want and leave my room this instant." She said, walking past him but he grabbed her arm and made her face him."It isn't true." He said and she scoffed."I don't have time for this, I need to rest my head that has been decorating room after room ever since morning." She said, wriggling to get her arms out of his hold."I promised you Ashley that I would never...""And d
Chapter 53The morning breeze was not soothing at all.Even though it was,q Ashley could not find it soothing.She had woken up a few minutes past six.After taking her bath and washing the bowl she had used to feed her little puppies..she made a delicious meal for them and then for the rest of the people that cared to eat as well."Ma'am." She looked up and it was Rob."What can I do for you, Rob? Are you okay?" She asked, seeing a small cut on his lips."I am fine. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Laura asked me to send her greetings. What do you want right now..""I'm not dead Rob, I'm perfectly fine. Look how my skin is glowing. I am fine, not dead, I just watched something I was not supposed to watch..okay?" She shrugged turning to the entrance where three more guards had lined up.Then she heard footsteps coming down and she looked up.Her shoulders slumped and she walked to stand near the door of the kitchen."Ashley.""Are we going to do that this morning? I think it's
Chapter 54Ashley had prepared breakfast and they were seated in the dining room, eating without saying a word.First of all, Mikhail had knelt begging for forgiveness.How could she not forgive?'You're so stupid Ashley, he knelt and you forgave him? Do you know how many women he has knelt for?' Her mind scolded but she fought back.There was no way a person like Mikhail had knelt for any other woman.She was his wife and that was why he had done that...Was Mikhail in love with her?Or was he falling for her? Or was he already in love with her? She didn't know, but she knew how her heart longed to know that.No man would kneel In front of a woman he didn't love right? And especially if the man was someone like Mikhail, right?"You're not eating your food." She looked up and gasped when she felt his Cold hands on hers.She smiled and look at the food.It was an Italian Spaghetti recipe she had cooked."The Luciano Family wanted a speech from him during the Press International meeting
Chapter 55The mall was a huge one and Sandra sighed.This wasn't what she bargained for but if he wanted to spend money on her..then who the hell was she to say No.They got down from the car and she smiled.Mason was taking a phone call and he was very loud, cussing at the person at the other end of the phone."Don't you dare go back on your word, you scoundrel and...""Ouch." Sandra winced as if the insult had hit her.He threw a glare and she shrugged."Good morning Mr. Mason." She turned to see a lady walking towards them.Oh Please...not another one.He ended the call, glaring at her before turning to the woman."Leslie! When did you arrive? I was told you live in Amsterdam now." He said, smiling."I've been doing fine. Yes, I traveled to Amsterdam 'cause mum wanted me to....get married.""Ha! No wonder. I would not want to waste your time. I'll be leaving now." He said, and the latter nodded with a smile."Who is she?""She's my assistant and my girlfriend." He said, turning to
Chapter 56The drive to the beach was slower than she expected it.This was unlike Mikhail and up until that very moment, she could not believe that Mikhail was sitting in the car and driving it to a beach she had written down for them to go to.Why was he suddenly acting like that?He did say he cared..but she could not understand how.Why did he care? How could he care?He was yet to explain what he meant but then for the main time.. she'd let him off the hook.Licking her lips and looked out of the window of the car and sighed."Are you okay? If you're not okay with the breeze, I can close the windows." He offered but she shook her head."I'm okay Mikhail, can you stop acting like I'm some fragile thing that would break?" She asked, turning to see a smile on his lips."No one said you were fragile." He said and she huffed."You've been saying that for a while now.""Ha! Lying with my name. I don't see how that would help you, Mrs. Mazza." He said."Actions speak louder than words M
Chapter 57"I don't give jobs to people that I don't deem fit ready for a job." His voice was plain...smoke puffed out of his mouth as he spoke."You want the man dead... he's a dead man already.""That's where you're wrong. This man has been shot many times and he's still alive. He's not just any man you go to kill." The man said, chuckling as he stood up from his chair and walked to the window."How do you want him dead then?""You cannot kill him stupid. But then I want you to do a clean job. Kill his Achilles Heel and get Two Million Dollars. A sharp kill, a bullet can do the deed." The man said again, smirking as he removed the coat that was draped over his shoulder."Can you do that Ken? This is a job that can cost you your life. Men have tried but failed.""Anything for you Boss." The other young man said and stood up."If you live, you get the money. But if you don't.. your family gets it. The Omerta can never change." Puffing another smoke...he waited before chuckling."Yo
