Ashley ate her breakfast slowly so she could avoid whatever conversation she was about to have with Bryan. She doesn't want to think about Hayden, at least not now. His silence is hurting her. After her breakfast, she walked back to the living room and still met them there. She sighed and Bryan smiled at her.“I have been waiting for you, I really want to hear how the vacation went,” Bryan said with a smile as she walked to Bryan, she sat beside him and he urged her to go on.“Hmm, we... we didn't do anything much. He... he just surprised me by doing things on my list.” She stuttered as she tried to stop herself from looking at Hayden.“Things like what?” Bryan asked.“I... I can't really recall, but he thanked me for being in his life, he made us see fireworks, he smiled... “ “Bryan,” Hayden called with a cold voice and Ashley felt scared. “What?” “Don't you have somewhere to be?” “No.” “Yes you do, you have a company to run, so leave.” He almost yelled and Ashley was getting t

Ashley hugged her pillow tightly in her bed as she cried, she has never been hurt this way. She gets insulted a lot by her parents but it was never this hurtful, She knows that she is starting to have a feeling for Hayden and she knows that is why it hurts so bad. She knew he doesn't like her, everything he is doing us just because he wants to have fun. He doesn't care about her not to talk of appreciating her for coming into his life. She stared at her phone and check the time, it is night already and she sighed. She has been crying all day and she skipped meals. The former Hayden would be in the room right now forcing her to eat. The memory made her feel more hurt and tears streamed out of her eyes.She sighed and wiped her tears, she needs a break from all of this, she can't be feeling this way and staying with him in the same house, it was just going to ruin her. She needs time to clear her head and put her mind at ease, all she needs to do is understand the fact that Hayden ca

“So? Does that make a difference?” He asked and she slapped him again. She was about to say a word to him but she decided not to, she walked out of the study room angrily and Hayden sighed. “Ugh, why the fuck did I say that?” He muttered and ran his hands through his hair.“Because you are such an asshole.” He heard Bryan reply and he knew he was in the room already.“Go away, Bryan.” He groaned and Bryan sat next to him.“I know you are just mad and jealous because you saw us together at her house.”“Ugh, can we not talk about that?” “We can talk about it.”“I always have the urge to kill you if we talk about it.” He muttered and Bryan chuckled.“I think you should apologize to Ashley for everything and tell her you love her and care about her.”“I don't love her, and neither do I care about her.” “Just admit it, you are not going to lose anything if you admit you love her.”“I don't, let's talk about Andrew. When did he get back?” Hayden asked and Bryan smiled.“He has been arou

Ashley remained on the spot and stared at the shattered glasses on the floor, she felt terrified and shook a little.“He really squeezed that till it broke.” She muttered and sighed.‘He must have been hurt’ She thought and decided to check on him.She followed him by heading towards the direction he took, she saw him in the lobby and she walked towards him.“Hayden, are you hurt?” She asked and held his hand, she paused seeing there was not even a scratch on it.“Didn't you hurt yourself?” She asked and he jerked his hand away from her.“What do you want?” He asked.“I just came to see if you are hurt.” “You don't need to.” “Why are you always like this? What the hell is wrong with you?”“There is nothing wrong with me, all I need you to do is just leave me alone.” He said and turned away from her, and Ashley fought the urge to cry.“Look at me, Hayden.” “What?” “Just look at me!” She yelled and he rolled his eyes before turning to her. “What? I hope I don't hear a pathetic sto

Hayden stared at Ashley as she slept, he found it weird and amusing as she hugged her pillow in her sleep. He checked the time on his phone and rolled his eyes. It's 9:00 am already, why isn't she awake?“Ashley.” He called and she didn't show any indication of waking up, he decided to leave her and continue staring at her. After a few minutes, she opened her eyes and screamed in fear, she rolled off the bed and Hayden sighed.“Good morning.” He said and he heard her scoff. “There is nothing good about the morning already.” She snapped as she stood up from the floor.“If you say so.” “You scared the hell out of me.”“I know.”“So apologize.”“For what?”“For scaring me.” “No, am not doing that.” He replied and stood up from the bed. “Get ready and meet me downstairs.” He ordered and walked out of the room, Ashley scoffed and rolled her eyes.“Always giving orders.” She mumbled and headed into the bathroom. Minutes later, she walked out dressed in a gown with her phone in her ha
