ASHLEY

I jerked up, my jaw dropping in disbelief.

“What? My father sent you?" I gasped.

His smirk widened and he shrugged, that annoying glee flashing past his grey eyes.

"Yes, he was quite worried about you. I am to keep you company until you get better,” he answered.

I swung my head back and scoffed loudly, my lips twitching up in irritation.

“Why would he do that? He is supposed to be upset with me!” I let my thoughts take control of reality.

“Why should he?" Skylar scoffed, his brows raisi

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [152] Something Important

    ASHLEY I hesitated for a moment before pushing the door open.The silent living room greeted me the moment I stepped into the house.I tossed my head around, staring coldly at the picture frames hanging on the walls.They had been allowed to keep my father's house.Ever since I became the CEO of the company, we had barely crossed paths again. She never called, nor did her children or any other members of the family.I wondered why she was suddenly calling me now, claiming it was something important.I suspected she wanted to talk about the inheritance again. Perhaps she wanted me to transfer some of my inheritance to her children.If that was why she had called me, then she was wasting her time.I would make them all pay for hurting me all these years. None of them would benefit from my wealth, not even the youngest of them.I turned around when I heard footsteps on the staircase.I was still standing in the middle of the living room, staring at the family photograph hanging on the w

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [151] The Morgan brothers

    ANNMy heart leaped when I saw the Morgan brothers standing before me.I slowly lowered my gaze to the man lying on the ground, then lifted it back to their faces. Why did it have to be them?They also looked surprised to see me standing before them. I tilted my head back, hoping to catch a glimpse of Silas again, but by the time my eyes flickered to the table, he was gone.“Miss Carter? Is that really you?” Jacobee was the first to speak.I narrowed my eyes, pushing my scarf back as the heat in the room intensified.“What are you doing in a place like this?” Skylar asked in a cold voice.I came here to discover what your family has been hiding from the world.I wanted to say that to him, but instead I pressed my lips together.I parted my lips again and looked up at them.“What's with the faces? Are you men the only ones allowed to be here?” I huffed.Jacobee chuckled and rubbed Skylar's shoulder.“I don't think the Morgan family will be pleased to hear their favorite son’s woman v

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [150] Clubhouse

    ASHLEYI got out of the car, adjusting my scarf as I stared at the clubhouse Silas invited me to.I'd taken full control of the company and every other property left in my name.Though I was barely in touch with my father's family, I was still glad that I won in the end.Now, I was dealing with finding out who the hell Kourtney was and uncovering what the Morgan family had been hiding for decades.Besides, bringing them down would get them out of the way of being my only strong competitor in the industry.I shifted my shades and walked into the clubhouse.The loud music and sharp, piercing crimson light hit me the moment I stepped behind the doors.I cursed under my breath as I brushed past braindead men reaching out to touch my body in the red light-flooded corridor.When I finally made it into the club, I darted my eyes around, searching for Silas.Strippers swung around long poles, pulling the lust-filled crazy men to them like moths to a flame.They swayed their hips and jiggled t

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [149] Half-brother

    ASHLEYHis lips twitched into a smirk as I blurted out his name.“I’m surprised you remember me. I thought you forgot the moment we parted ways,” he muttered.I chuckled, a smile etched against my lips.“Why would I forget you?” I cackled.After the warning I received, I wasn't going to forget him so easily.“Follow me. I will get you out of here,” he said, waving his hand.I craned my head back and nodded at Luis. Jacobee forced a smile at me before turning around into a hallway. I followed him down the hallway in silence, even though different questions filled my head.“You got in trouble with the law again?” he asked as if I had been doing so constantly.“They just wanted to clear up some rumors,” I said.He sighed, his shoulders slumping.“Is it still about that man’s death?” he asked. My chest tightened, and I gulped hard.“My name has been cleared,” I replied in a voice thick with anger.He paused and turned, a satisfied smile spreading over his face.“I'm glad,” he muttered a

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [148] Suspect... again

    ASHLEY “I've told you everything I know. I'm not involved with Simon's death,” I blurted out for the fifth time since I was brought into the interrogation room. The moment I got the gift from Lilian, the news was leaked to the media, and before I could think of a way out, the police appeared at my doorstep. Hateful posts and calls have been blowing up my phone since the rumor spread, and for more than an hour, I've been sitting in this suffocating room answering the same question over and over again. I guessed Margaret and the rest of them were happy. Lilian had given them just enough excuse to throw me out of the company. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair, angry and frustrated. The detective leaned back into the seat, narrowing his eyes over me in suspicion. “Are you sure you're saying the truth, Miss Ashley?" he muttered, forcing me to let out a scoff. “You think I'm lying. " I shook my head in disbelief. He remained silent, his eyes glued on me. I gulped hard and r

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [147] Celebration

    ASHLEY “Cheers!” Our glasses clinked and everyone gulped down their glass of wine. Lauren had thrown a small party on my behalf to celebrate my success and the inheritance of the company. I had only invited a few of my actor friends and other people I got close to after my return. I had also sent an invitation to Lillian but she rejected it. I was glad she did, though, I was planning to embarrass and mock her in front of everyone. “Congratulations, sweetheart,” Chloe stepped forward with a wrapped box. My lips twitched up in a smile as I took the gift from her. “Thank you,” I muttered. “You're about to become a billionaire,” she said as she tilted her head to the side and watched me. I chuckled at her words, my cheeks staining with pride. “You're flattering me, Chloe,” I muttered. She laughed and gave a hug before walking off to chat with her friends present. My gaze shifted to my brother who was standing in front of the cellar, a glass of whiskey in his hand and his ey

Would he really do that for me? That was… crazy.“They're still in the kitchen?" Jasper's voice echoed from the li
