After Divorce, I Chose Sins Chapter 12: Ashley’s POV
“Are you okay,” he steadied me.My heart was pounding like a drum, I could not utter a word. His gaze was unwavering. His eyes… there was something about them. It was like I knew them and I didn’t at the same time.I staggered a bit as we were safely on the sidewalk.“Th-thank you,” I said as I pulled myself away from him, still trembling.“You were about to walk into a moving car.”I blinked.The sound of the horn still echoed faintly in my head.“Are you okay?” He asked again.“I-” I stopped.“You have to be more careful on these streets, for you own sake.”I swallowed and looked away.“I’m fine. Thank you”“You don’t look fine, though.”“I said I’m fine.”My tone came out defensive.His eyes stayed on me like he didn’t believe a word I said.If I was him, I wouldn’t believe me tooIt irritated me.“Look,” I exhaled, running a hand through my hair. “Thank you. For… that. But I’m okay.”He didn’t step away from me. He just stood there, waiting for me to say what’s actually wrong with

I stepped out of the cab with my thoughts still tangled, my fingers tightening around my bag like it was the only thing keeping me grounded.This was it.I said to myself as I took a full scan of the building in front of me. I hadn’t been here in years, that feeling was uncanny.“Here goes nothing,” I said and walked in.The lobby was colder than I remembered. But that wasn’t the only thing different. It looked more… modern and just systematic.Father would've hated this. He believed a place should feel alive the moment you walked in. And this… this was totally different.Eyes followed me as I moved past the front desk, whispers trailing behind me like I was some outsider, like they didn’t recognize me.I ignored them.I stepped toward the elevator but a hand stopped me before I could press the button.“Ma’am,” the security guard said, his tone polite but firm. “You can’t go up there.”I frowned. “Excuse me?”“Your access has been restricted.”The words didn’t register at first.“Wha

“Fuck!” I growled, shoving all the papers on my desk to the floor.Erika, my assistant whimpered.“What do you mean Eleganza pulled out of the investment?” I fumed.“I- I don’t kn-know,” she trembled. “I only saw their email this morning.”My eyes darted back to the window, wondering where it all went wrong.“T-they mentioned something else, sir.” “What?” My head pulsed.She walked nervously towards me and handed me the tablet.I stared at the email like it had teeth waiting to bite me. My fingers tightened around the tablet before I even realized it. The subject line alone was enough to make my jaw lock.‘INTERNAL REVIEW NOTICE’I opened it anyway.The screen lit up with words I wished I could unsee.“Your recent conduct has raised serious concerns regarding your competence in leadership.”I scoffed under my breath. Leadership wasn’t something they could take from me with a sentence. Then I kept reading.The next paragraph hit harder.“Allegations of infidelity within your marriage

For a second, I couldn’t move.His lips were still on mine firmly, like he already knew I wouldn’t pull away fast enough.I shoved him.My back hit the wall and my chest started rising.I wiped my lips immediately and that smirk was still on his face.“What is wrong with you?” My voice came out low, but it shook anyway. “Are you insane? Do you have a death wish?”He didn’t look affected. Not even a little.He just stood there, watching me like he had expected that reaction.And that stupid smirk.“I told you,” he said quietly. “You don’t remember.”My brows pulled together.“What are you talking about?” I snapped. “You’re engaged to my sister.”“I know.”He didn’t show any sign of guilt.“Then explain what the hell is wrong with you and what I have to do with it,” I demanded.His eyes lingered on mine.“I already did.”That made no sense at all. I remembered running into him that night and nothing else.Anger rose in me again but underneath that was confusion. I didn’t know if he was

Ashley’s POV“Finally,” I placed the last plate on the dining table. “The table’s ready!” I raised my voice enough for Stella to hear me.My eyes followed as she skipped down the stairs.“Ouu,” I whistled at her, scanning her dress. “Absolutely stunning?”‘You think?” she blushed and twirled.“I know,” I cupped her face. “You look perfect… just like-”I paused. She looked exactly like mom. Saying that could dull the mood tonight and she has to look her best.She smiled wider, “Like mom,” her eyes softened. “I know.”She knew.“You didn't have to do all this,” she said, glancing at the table.“I wanted to,” I replied. “It's been a while since we had something normal.”Her expression flickered for a second, then she nodded.“I hope tonight goes well,” she said.“It will,” I assured her, even though I was only hoping also.A knock came from the door. My heart skipped.“That should be him,” Stella said, already turning.I wiped my hand on the towel behind me and followed her. She opened
