I recognised Rosie Crawford’s characteristically shrill voice.

‘How could you have people throw her into the lake!? She almost drowned! She’s in hospital now, still coughing up water! She can’t stop shaking! I—’

‘If she can be cruel enough to do those things to Mirabelle, why shouldn’t I return the favour?’ Ashton’s tone was ice-cold and unapologetic. ‘You can tell her this: she’s welcome to keep pushing her luck. Whatever she does to Mirabelle, she’ll get it back tenfold.’

He hung up.

I looked at him. ‘You had Genevieve thrown into the lake?’

He nodded.

I was stunned. ‘Why?’

He said simply, ‘An eye for an eye.’

I was lost for words. ‘But… I thought you didn’t want to punish her…’

‘I didn’t want to punish her because I didn’t believe she was the one who pushed you.’

I frowned. ‘Then why…?’

‘But she’s hurt you in other ways. She’s tried to drive a wedge between us. I’ve come to realise that sometimes the truth isn’t what’s most important.’

He looked straight at me. ‘I need you to belie

  • I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis   Chapter 348 Lie Low

    ‘They’re creating a diversion to keep the kidnappers busy. That’s how I managed to get you out.’Another wave of nausea hit me, dry and wrenching.Rhys hurried to pour a glass of water and handed it to me. ‘Here, sip this. I’ll figure something out for food.’‘Really, don’t bother. If people are looking for us, it’s not worth the risk. I’ll be fine. Staying alive is more important than eating.’I took a small sip. The water warmed my stomach slightly, so I drank a bit more. But after a few mouthfuls, my body rebelled. Everything came back up, violently.I hadn’t eaten anything in hours, so there was nothing left to bring up except bitter bile. It was agonising.Rhys passed me tissues and rubbed my back gently as I retched. When it was over, I collapsed back onto the bed, drained and shaky.‘Do you want to try more water?’I shook my head.

    ‘Don’t get clever,’ he snapped, the chill back in his tone.‘Are you a friend of hers? An admirer?’‘You ask too many questions. People who know too much get silenced.’I stared harder. ‘So I was right. She didn’t hire you, did she? This is your own doing. What are you to her? And why take the risk—aren’t you afraid of what Ashton will do to you?’‘Afraid?’ He let out a harsh laugh. ‘Why the fuck would I be afraid of him? If he knew who I was, he’d be the one shaking.’‘I’d think twice about making an enemy of Ashton. It won’t end well for you.’‘Tch. You should be more worried about your own situation. Are you really not scared at all?’ He sounded almost offended by how calm I seemed.I didn’t answer. My stomach was aching with hunger, but I wouldn’t ask him for food. I refused to beg t

    I shot him an annoyed look. ‘Anyway, I’m just tired. There’s nothing wrong with me. Just let me get a few proper nights of sleep. Then I’ll be back to my old self.’‘Alright,’ Ashton said, pulling me close with a sigh.I could feel the heat of his body against my back, and the obvious evidence of his arousal. But I was already fading, my eyelids growing impossibly heavy. Within moments, I was asleep.The next morning, I woke up feeling just as drained.‘What time is it?’‘Almost eight,’ Ashton replied. ‘But if you’re still tired, just sleep a bit longer. Take the day off. What’s going on with you lately? Is it really just exhaustion?’‘It’s all your fault,’ I grumbled, giving him a half-hearted glare.‘Yes, yes. It’s all my fault. I’m the one to blame,’ he conceded readily.I had no intention of ca

  • I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis   Chapter 345 Exhaustion

    ‘But… it doesn’t really matter whether you can have children or not. Ashton doesn’t need you to give him a baby. He’s got me for that,’ she added, her voice oozing with satisfaction.I realised it was completely impossible to have a rational conversation with her. She was utterly obsessed.‘You’re insane.’‘Ha! Think whatever you like.’‘Alright, I think you’ve officially lost it. I almost feel sorry for you. Look, I’m busy. Don’t call me again with this nonsense.’ I hung up without letting her respond.Even though I knew it was all lies Genevieve had concocted, I couldn’t help but wonder why she would suddenly say such things.Logically, I knew Ashton wouldn’t do anything with her, but that didn’t stop the sick, uncomfortable feeling spreading through my chest.So I called him, fuming.‘Mira?’ Ashton s

    I’d almost forgotten about the mark on my cheek. ‘Oh… that. I just scraped it by accident.’He took my hand. ‘Tell me who did this to you.’‘Just leave it, please.’I didn’t want to put Ashton in a difficult position, and I didn’t want to upset myself all over again. If I told him it was Genevieve’s mother, what would he do? Would he actually confront her for my sake?‘Tell me.’I looked up and met his frustrated gaze.‘Fine, since you want to know, I’ll tell you. It was Genevieve’s mother. She said I stole her daughter’s boyfriend. She decided to teach me a lesson, slapped me, and her nail caught my cheek. That’s how I got this scratch.’His eyes narrowed. ‘Come on.’ He took my hand and led me firmly towards the car park.‘Where are you taking me?’He made a quick call. ‘Ryan, something’s come up. I have to go. Put everything on my tab.’Ryan must have asked why, because Ashton replied, ‘I’m settling a score for my wife.’‘You’re really going to confront Genevieve’s mother?’ I asked
