ASHLEY POV

I blinked my eyelashes thinking of the man beside me. He was too handsome to be ignored or not to talk to. I knew he was not comfortable with the way I was close to him but it was okay with me. As long as I won't pass my boundaries. He doesn't know he was a temptation to almost everyone around him. I looked to my side just to see he was staring at me but immediately he saw me looking, he looked away. 

"Are you okay?" He asked me 

I nodded. 

"Yes, I am," I replied in one breath. 

"Are you sure? Do you need me to get you anything? Do you?" He asked like a gentleman. He is. 

"Yes," I replied. 

I needed him to tell me more about him. Aside from his name. I could hire him as my bodyguard or something. He looks like he needed one. A job to be precise. 

"Oh. What is it? I will get it for you if it's within my power ma'am." He said politely. 

"Ma'am? Oh c'mon. Don't address me as that. You are making me feel older. Looking at you, you are a lot older than me. I am just twenty-two years old." I told him and he didn't look surprised like he knew who I was and how old I was. 

"Oh..that." He said smiling revealing his dimples. 

He looked really shy but I guess he wasn't really. 

I bit my lower lips and tucked my hair behind my ear. I looked away. 

"Okay. So what do you do? Business or something?" I asked him. 

He looked at me and then away. It seems he wasn't interested in talking about his life. But I was curious to know. Men like him do have higher status and standards. Some like him are mafias while others are higher ranks of businessmen. But too bad to see him like this. If one saw him outside, one would have thought he was wealthy. 

"I work in a magazine company." 

"Oh really? Do you work there? I own a magazine company too." 

I beamed happily. "Really? You do?"

"Yes, I do. But with different branches. I have other business investors and people to head them like R & B magazine. Megastar magazine. I also had a Mariah Carey photoshoot last week. It was fun to be with her. Don't you think so?" I rushed words happily while he couldn't stop smiling. 

I wished he was working with me. It would be so much fun. 

"That's cool." He said simply and I leaned backwards. 

"Yes, it is. So if I may ask. What's your last name? Or can you give me your number or something?" I asked hoping it won't sound weird. 

He didn't say anything for a while and I thought I went too far by asking him that. I don't have any business with his last name or his number. Asking for his number was actually out of line. I cleared my throat. 

"U hmm...I...it's okay I just wanted us to be friends if that's alright with you. But it's also okay if you don't wanna give me your number or your last..."

"Hmm...uh..it's okay with me. After dropping you off, you can have it and about my last name it's ...Br..."

My phone rang. I pulled it out of my purse and checked who it was. 

'Olivia' popped up. I smiled and looked up. 

"Excuse me. I need to pick this." 

I swiped and placed the phone on my ear. "Olivia," I said 

"Oh jeez. There you are. I have called your cellphone like fifty times. Where have you been? Lucas is been here ranting, saying he wants to see you." Olivia said over the phone. A smile curled up on my face at the mention of Lucas. Why the hell was he ranting that he wanted to see me? We are not even together and he is not even my boyfriend. 

"Lucas is there? Why the fuck did you allow him into your home Olivia? I told you I don't want to see him." I blurted. 

"But you went to a party with him. He thought you were all alright." 

"No, we are not. I only went to that party with him because you said so. C'mon Olly, you know I wouldn't go to a party with that crap." I uttered firmly. I don't just like that guy. He just isn't my type. To me, he looks like a gold digger. 

"Really? He thought you were both in love? Tell me Ashley, are you in love with another guy?" Olivia suddenly asked. 

I frowned at that particular question. Was I in love with another guy? now? What if I was in love with another guy? What was she gonna do about it? Wait. Was she trying to force me into loving Lucas? No way. It can't be. 

"What?" I questioned. 

"Because you are acting like it."

"I can't believe you are saying this to me Olly. When you are back in your right senses you call me back and we can both talk this out." I said and disconnected the call. I threw my phone in the backseat and leaned on the seat. 

"Are you okay Ma'am Ashley?" Aryan asked. 

"Do I look okay to you?" I said looking pissed up. My best friend just fucked my mood up. It was when Aryan's face dropped that was when I realized what I just said. I had just vented my anger on him. It wasn't fair but who cares? He butts in at the wrong time. I blinked my lashes and cursed under my breath in frustration. It was frustrating. It makes me sick. All I want right now was to be at home in the comfort of my bedroom and sleep off. 

I peered at the mirror looking so worn out already. 

"I am sorry for interfering. I thought there was a problem." Aryan said. 

"Apology accepted. Just focus on driving." I blurted.

    THE END!Chapter 140 Writer's POV."You think you can just live happily after everything you have done?""What? I have not done anything bad to you. Not at all." Ashley muttered. "Shut up, you have done a lot to me. A lot. You stole his heart from me. Do you think you are the only wealthy one here? We were supposed to take all of your money and elope together but because of your stupid body, you didn't allow it to happen. How could you be so selfish?" Ashley finally understood where everything was coming from. "I never asked for it. Everything that is happening. I never asked for it. I thought you are my best friend. How could you do this to me?" "I was never your friend, Ashley. You are too wealthy to be my friend. Who do you think was behind the illness that had been happening to you? Of course, I am the one. I was the one who injected the drug in your drink and you stupidly fell into my trap. Sex addict!" Olivia said as she bursts into laughter. Ashley was dumbfounded and didn'

  • A deal with the CEO   Chapter 138

    Chapter 138WRITER'S POVLucille sat down on the couch in the foyer as she sipped her coffee slowly. She read through her social media account and saw pictures of Aryan surfacing on the internet. She called the maids but none of them answered her. She was furious and decided to get up and check what they were all doing. On getting to the kitchen, she saw them all cornered up scrolling, smiling, laughing, and drooling. She wondered what they were all looking at that made them not answer her call. She didn't make a sound as she moved closer to them and stood behind them. "So this what you have been looking at?" She asked with her tone harsh on them. They knew they were all in trouble. They shivered and quickly kept their phone. "What are you all looking at? Answer me! I am asking you all a question." She repeated. "We are very sorry ma'am.." One of the maids apologized but that doesn't make Lucille stop asking questions. "Give me that phone!"She ordered."Ma'am.""You don't want

  • A deal with the CEO   Chapter 136

    Chapter 136ARYAN'S POV"How dare you? You used me! You made me do this with you just to spite me. How could you do this to me?" Ashley said and I smiled. I told her the truth. "What do you think? Do you think I will just accept that little kid as my daughter? Then go get a DNA test. If she matches to be my daughter then it's fine but if turned otherwise, you are in trouble with me.""I can't believe you. Isn't it obvious? You fucked me because you want revenge?""Doesn't it worth it? Didn't you enjoy it too?" I asked and she frowned. Why was she getting angry now? She loved it, doesn't she? She moaned for me and we both enjoyed it. To be very honest, I missed her taste. She tastes so fucking good. The face she makes when she cum and those curves of hers. "Shut up. Where is my daughter?" She asked. "She is up already," I told her and I don't even know why I became soft for her. I just wanted to treat her badly but I couldn't try it. I thought just one taste of her would allow me t

  • A deal with the CEO   Chapter 135

    Chapter 135ASHLEY'S POVHis erection poked my butt and I suddenly got wet. Every touch of his drives me insane. He fanned his breath on the skin of my neck and that alone, made me wet more. But this just doesn't feel right. He has a mission he wants to carry out on me but I will never let that happen. He is angry at us. Angry at me. Who knows if he wants to kill me?I will never let that happen. "Stop it," I muttered. He didn't. He continued but the moment he cupped my breast was unbearable. Too unbearable for me and it is getting so hard for me to breathe. I moved away and I slapped him. He can't do that to me. I moved out of his hold and I turned to him. He had nothing but a blank expression. He stood motionless and I watched as his vein bobbed dangerously. What does he want from me? "I told you to stop but you won't even listen to me. I came here because you said you wanted to talk. But look? You are harassing me." I said thinking he would say something but he said nothing.
