Ashley POV

The ambulance arrived sooner than I expected. Or at least, that's what Mom kept saying as we were driven to Silvercross Healing Center by David. Her tone stayed cool and calm — perhaps in an attempt to appear less affected by Dad's condition than he really was — as she rattled off various reasons that he would be fine. But, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that she kept touching the small gold cross necklace she always wore around her neck.

“He will be fine,” she said for the umpteenth time. “He's only fifty-five years old. He eats a healthy diet and exercises every day, I have made sure of that. He might not even have another heart attack, he might just faint from drinking too little water. I should have kept him hydrated while cooking.”

My mom's explanation sounded quite reasonable. As I dashed back to the dining room while calling 911, I found Jayden's father trying to wake up my unconscious father, to no avail. I also initially thought that my dad must have just f

  • My Cheating Amnesic Idol Mate   Chapter 136

    Ashley POVHe was lying on the only bed in the room, still wearing the same clothes he had worn to dinner. There was an IV connected to the crook of his arm and although his face was a little pale, I was happy to see Dad's chest rise and fall slowly and evenly.At once, Mom darted to his side. I almost thought she would ignore Healer Kim's words and wake him up, but she simply lowered the bedside railing and sank down beside him. She did not touch him, and her face was tense, but I could clearly see the fear in her eyes, a fear that she could not hide even though the love in her gaze was so real and undeniable that I had to look away.My mouth opened to say something, but then I stopped myself. Just as I was not sure I could accept Jayden's sympathy without crumbling, I doubted she needed the same treatment. I chose to let the silence remain and pulled up one of the two chairs in the room.“Don't.”I frowned and turned my head. “Mom?”“You should go home.” Her gaze was sharp, but not

    Ashley POVJayden's father shoved my father away from him and kicked off his shoes before stepping onto the wooden floor past the black mats that covered the floor of the entrance. I spotted Jayden backing away, seemingly unconsciously, even though there was plenty of room in the hallway. I clenched my fists but kept my mouth shut tightly.“Slippers,” Mom warned as she helped Jayden's mom put on her outerwear, her gaze sharp and stern.My father brushed off her words, something he only dared to do when Jayden's father was around. “That's not necessary. Honey, why don't you prepare something for everyone to drink? For the kids too.”I looked at my mom as she swallowed the explanation of why slippers were good to wear in the house — an explanation I had heard many times before — and merely smiled. “I will. But first...”My stomach dropped to the bottom of the pit as she locked her gaze on me.“Don't you have anything to tell Jayden and Jared's parents, Ashley?”I froze. His father and h

  • My Cheating Amnesic Idol Mate   Chapter 133

    Ashley POVI walked out of the room at six in the evening. His parents were supposed to arrive at half past eight, which technically meant I only had about ten minutes left, but Mom was already glaring at me intently as I came into the dining room.“It's about time you behaved yourself,” she told me, with a teasing glint in her eye. “With the way you were holding onto him earlier, I thought you were copying a monkey.”She was sitting alone at the head of the table with a glass of red wine in one hand and her mobile phone in the other. The blaring rock music had stopped, and I could hear my father's voice finishing something in the kitchen.“Where's Jayden?” I asked, shrugging off her comment, though I could not help but feel my cheeks heating up.My face felt burning again as I plopped down in one of the ten chairs surrounding the long dining table made of dark wood, metal, and glass.“In the bathroom,” she replied, taking a sip of her wine. “You have not had sex with him, have you?”

  • My Cheating Amnesic Idol Mate   Chapter 132

    Ashley POVHis gaze flicked from my eyes to my lips, as I felt my face grow hotter and hotter under the glare of his eyes. The warmth radiating from his body, even through his clothes, felt so real that I almost had to double-check to make sure he was actually wearing something. My fingers itched to touch the corner of his jaw, his nose, and every part of him. It was like there was an invisible pull pushing me towards his lips, his body, his hands — and I wanted so badly to touch him, to let him touch me. The desire to do more than just kiss him was almost impossible to resist, which was strange, considering we had never even really kissed.He became even harder to resist when one of his hands traveled from my cheek to the exposed skin on my shoulder, then to my waist, and finally stopped at my bare feet. The temperature in the apartment was actually comfortable — the air conditioning worked well in every room — yet I felt unexpectedly toasty in my summer clothes as I lay beneath him.

  • My Cheating Amnesic Idol Mate   Chapter 131

    Ashley POVI was unaware that David had even parked before the hotel entrance until his voice snapped me out of my reverie. Judging by the expression on his face, I could guess that he must have been waiting for quite some time without me responding.Out of shame, I cleared my throat before responding, “Thank you. I don't think we need you anymore today, so you can go home if you want.”“Alright,” he said, though a hint of hesitation was evident in his voice.I smiled to ease his worries and then stepped out of the car. After grabbing my duffel bag, I bid him farewell and headed to the elevator. Nervousness made the journey upstairs feel twice as long as usual, plus the dizziness that kicked in the second I opened the front door of my parents' apartment.Eighties or nineties rock music was blaring from the kitchen. No wonder I spotted my dad standing by the stove humming and dancing to the beat. My mom was sitting on one of the barstools near the kitchen, her skinny legs crossed, thou
