ASHLEYA call! A damn anonymous call got me running down the sidewalk with a bruised knee and messed-up hair.I was supposed to be home, sipping wine while waiting for his return, but here I was, running into a private lodge at the end of an empty driveway.“33," I kept whispering to myself as I limped across the corridor, swinging my head over the doors at both sides.I finally found the door and stopped before it, staring at the number boldly written at the top of the door.My heart was racing so fast that it felt like it would burst. My mind was not in order, and the sinking feeling of the words of whoever called me coming to pass engulfed me. It felt like I was dying with each second that passed as I stood there.I thought of turning around and walking back home like nothing had happened, but my body didn't yield to that thought.The more I thought of heading back home to wait for my husband to come home for our anniversary, the more the curiosity nudged me forward to grab the kno

ASHLEYWhen I woke up the next day, I found myself in bed with a cup of coffee on the table close to the bed.I rubbed my throat, which had gone sore from crying all through the night, and slowly got out of bed. My legs were still wobbly, and I could barely walk.As I limped towards the cup of coffee with every strength left in me, the door behind me suddenly opened, and I felt my heart drop into the pit of my belly.My fist clenched in fury when a familiar cologne swept past my nose.“You're awake!" Alex's voice pierced through the room, and my throat knotted.I took in a deep breath and pulled myself together before turning to face him with a stern look on my face.“I'll put up with you only after the official contract signing. I'll file for a divorce once this is over!" I snapped.Alex's lips twitched into a smile that made my skin crawl in disgust.He slipped his hand into his hand pocket, then began to trudge closer with a smile on his face.“It's a good thing you're being consid

ASHLEYI slapped her hand off and staggered back in horror, my throat knotting.“What are you saying?" I whispered in a grave tone, still trying to get out of the hold of confusion.Lilian's smile never left her face as she pulled closer.“You still don't get it, do you?” She muttered.My head swerved to Alex's direction, and the smile on his face caused anger to wash through me. He and Lilian shared the same kind of smile. That evil, cunning smile that could throw you off your feet.It slowly made sense to me as I stood there in the middle of accusers and haters. Lilian was never on my side.I chuckled at the realization and raised my dropped head to look at her with eyes full of tears.“So, it's been you all this time?" I muttered and staggered to her, ready to drag her down with me.The moment I parted my lips to speak, a slap hit my face.My eyes rolled up as gasps filled the air.“How dare you! I trusted you so much, Ash, yet I never knew you'd leave your husband to come after my

ASHLEYThe sharp ringtone of the telephone forced me to look up from the script in my hand, and my lips stretched into a smile. I stood up and shuffled towards it, the script dangling in my hand.I hesitated and watched it ring until it stopped, then it began to ring again.I chuckled at how much I was leaving the caller in a state of cold sweat, then picked up the telephone after letting it ring four times with no answer.“Hello, Ashley Carter speaking," I spoke when I pressed the red colored telephone to my ear.“I am calling from Skyline agency,” the man said, and I smirked.“We are offering–" "I'm not interested,” I cut him off and slammed down the receiver.I smiled and twirled around the living room in satisfaction.It's been three years since I left my past behind to start a new life. Three years have gone by since I made that promise to Alex and Lilian. Three years of preparation for a grand return.After I returned to my father, which felt shocking since he never liked me, he

ASHLEY“We’re here,” the driver said as he pulled the car over in the garage. I sighed loudly and threw the door open, then stepped out of the vehicle.I followed the driver to the mansion where my father and his family resided, then walked in when he opened the door.I froze when my eyes followed the chatter in the room to a table. My stepmother, her daughter, my aunt, and a woman I couldn't recognize were seated around the table chatting loudly and drinking tea.Disgust washed over me, and my fist clenched as I trudged closer in slow steps.The laughter ceased the moment my presence became known in the room.The silence that took over was so deafening that one could think everyone in the room had vanished into thin air.“I will leave now, Miss," my father's secretary whispered, being cautious not to break the silence as he tiptoed out of the living room.I sank my hands into my coat pocket and tilted my head to the side, a smirk laced against my face.My stepmother, Margaret, was th
