Rows of two-story townhouses lined the street, causing Hannah to furrow her brow in confusion. Ashton held her hand and led her to one in the middle. He opened the gate, climbed the stairs, and stopped before the door.

"What is this?" Hannah asked. "Why did you bring me here?"

"Do you have the key? You brought it with you, didn't you?" Ashton, who was carrying Henry, nodded toward her bag. "Let's see if it fits. Or we can try it on every house around here until we find the right one."

"Don't be silly," Hannah's voice was in a huff.

"Well, I kind of forgot which house I actually picked."

"Ashton, you're seriously..." Hannah was at a loss for words.

With a sigh, she reached into her pocket and pulled out the key he had given her. Her heart pounding, she slid it into the lock and turned it. A soft click sounded.

"Open sesame!" Ashton grinned.

Hannah stared at him, stunned. She had briefly considered the possibility, but she had ne

    "Oh my God," Hannah gasped as she awoke.Her body felt stiff and still tired. She had no idea how long she had slept. An arm wrapped around her from behind, making her gasp as everything came rushing back. It felt like a dream - her making love to Ashton, starting downstairs, and moving to the bedroom.What had she been thinking? Why didn't she stop herself?"Ashton, wake up," Hannah whispered, pushing his arm away from her body. "Ashton, please."Hannah sat on the edge of the bed, unsure how to cover her completely naked body.

I shouldn't have done this with you!""But..."Hannah quickly got out of bed and ran downstairs.

    Hannah struggled to free her wrist as Ashton dragged her into the parking lot. He led her to his car and stopped in front of it. Her breathing was heavy from keeping up with his hurried pace."Get in the car," Ashton ordered."I have a meeting! If you want to talk, do it now!" Hannah replied."Please, Hannah, get in the car. We need to talk somewhere else.""I don't want to!"Ashton opened the car door and gave her a sharp look. "Get in, now!"It was the first time Hannah had seen Ashton so angry, his voice thick with frustration. She stood her ground, but his grip on her wrist tightened."Please, I have work to do," she pleaded."And I have to deal with this?

What would she say to Victoria if Ashton forced her to leave?Ashton got in immediately and s

    Hannah had just entered the house when she heard the doorbell ring. The maid quickly opened the door, and Ashton stormed in, chasing after Hannah, who was carrying Henry."Hannah, we need to talk!" Ashton said.After lunch, Hannah said goodbye to Victoria and immediately ordered a taxi. She ignored Ashton's offer to take her home, but instead of letting her go, Ashton followed her, making Hannah feel even more conflicted.She remained silent and went straight to her bedroom, gently placing Henry in his crib. Ashton stood restlessly in the doorway."Go home, Ashton," Hannah pleaded.Instead, Ashton stepped inside and stood in front of her. "This is just a misunderstanding. I'm going to tell Mom that we're in a relationship.""I don't want that!" Hannah refused. "Your mother made it clear that she would disapprove of us. I should realize this now rather than drag it out any longer.""You think I want to be with Rachel?" Ashton sounded f

  • Marrying the Chairman in the Wheelchair   137. Twisted Fate

    It wasn't really a problem that Hannah was Alden's ex-wife since Victoria and Ashton's lives had nothing to do with him anymore. But in her heart, Victoria couldn't ignore that Alden was her son. And more than that, Henry was her grandson, which made everything even more complicated.Especially when it came to Ashton.Victoria wasn't blind to the fact that her younger son was falling in love.

Hannah whispered cautiously. "Are you out of your mind?""No. I haven't contacted Mom, I swear. She didn't even invite me to this dinner with you." Ashton sighed. "That's not fair.""It's not funny.
