Ashley stared around the hall like an excited kid who had been taken to a candy store hall filled with guests congratulating them on being engaged, She had told Alex that the party wasn't needed and they could get a grand one during their wedding but he insisted on it and she eventually agreed to it. "Congratulations babe." Susan smiled hugging her friend happily. "Make me an aunt soon." She teased. "Looks like I'm going to be one before you," Susan said and they all burst out in laughter. Other guests came along to congratulate the newlyweds as Ashley walked back to Alex. The hall was a beige color completed with white, although Ashley wanted a small wedding, her husband wanted otherwise and Susan supported them all along because she believed her friend deserved a grand wedding. "My feet hurt," Ashley whined while sitting on Alex's lap and gently adjusting his tie, his hair had been styled neatly making him look more majestic and making her fall in love with him all over. "I'm s

They both left the hospital and Alex had suggested she meets her true father who is also his adopted father, she got out of the car with his help and stared at the huge mansion before they walked into the house."I feel so nervous." Ashley muttered, although she had tried to put on a brave mask on her face but deep within her was shyness eating her away."It's alright, I'm here with you so there's absolutely nothing to worry about." He assured her which calmed her a little, he lightly squeezed her hand in his as they walked into the house. She looked around noticing how beautiful the mansion was, She wondered why he lived here all alone but no answer came to mind."He lives here all alone?" She looked up at Alex who nodded positively to her question, she noticed how much he loved art as there were lots of paintings hung on the wall which brought forgotten memories of when she was younger, she recalled her mom painting whenever she felt sad, could it be she was remembering her times wi

3 Days Earlier "Are you sure this is a good idea, honey?" Alex asked with fear-filled in his eyes, he couldn't bring himself to accept the possibility of him leaving his wife in the hands of George."If we want to be truly happy then this is the solution or he would keep hunting us no matter where we go, I don't want to live that kind of life with my child." Ashley pointed out which was a reasonable idea but he still couldn't bring himself to agree to it."What if things don't go our way once he's with you?" Alex was worried sick but Ashley knew that her idea was the only redemption."You don't have to be scared, You can get me a ring that has a tracker so that you can know where I am, that way you won't be so worried and we can easily get him.""You know quite well he's a mafia and not stupid right? He would take caution in whatever he does.""And that is why I suggested this, putting it in the media is to lure him into our trap and yes he's definitely going to fall for that bait, a

Ashley took out the tracker she had in her hair and handed it over to Tracy."I'm glad you're safe, I hope your didn't get hurt." Alex observed her body for any signs of injuries but she was okay."You don't have to worry too much darling, I'm doing just fine." She assured him."What happened to Mika?" He asked her and her face instantly turned to a frown."She betrayed us, she had intentionally exchanged the ring tracker to divert the attention of the cops but thankfully I had another which she had no idea about." ,shley explained."I'm sorry about that… for putting you and our baby in danger." He held her hand in his with a guilty face."It's alright but I didn't have trust for her from the onset and thankfully it paid off." She shrugged."The doctor would be here soon as you requested," Tracy told Alex who nodded frantically, Ashley looked at him in confusion wondering why he called the doctor."What's wrong?" She asked scrunching her brows and waiting for him to respond."I need t

Ashley silently sat on the cold floor staring in silence and not knowing what to do in her situation, She believed that Susan would be fine and by now they would have realized she was nowhere to be found, She felt sad that she didn't tell Alex about her plan but hoped he would understand her decision.Her train of thought was disturbed by the sound of the metal door opening, she looked up to see George approaching her with a big smile on his face as though he deserved it."What seems to be on your mind, my lady?" He grinned, placing a can of soda and some bread beside her."Predicting your death, what else?" She retorted sarcastically, he let out a light chuckle and paced around the room looking around as though finding if she had created some sort of escape route."Hmmm, dying by your hands doesn't seem like a bad idea you know? I won't make that possible because I don't want your hands to be stained with blood." He winked at her, and she rolled her eyes, staring at the junk beside h
