Entangled With My Soon-to-be Brother-in-law Chapter 58: Ashley's POV
On getting back downstairs, my head began to spin, a wave of dizziness enveloped me. I leaned against the wooden banister to steady myself from falling.I needed to get to the pharmacy next minute, but in this state, driving myself there was far from being an option. I grudgingly swiped open my purse zipper, to get my phone to book a taxi. “Cling cling”, my phone chimed, my patience wearing thin with every second it took before the taxi driver picked. “Hello ma’am, where……”“Rite Aid Pharmacy, Wilshire Boulevard”. I impatiently cut in, stopping the driver’s words. “Oh, alright, will be there in 2 minutes.”I was already walking towards the entrance when the call ended. As I was about to take the final step out of the house, a voice called out from a distance, which halted my movement. “Ashley!”My mother yelled. “Shitt”, I froze, anxiety pulsating my veins. “Not now please”, I stood still shutting my eyelids, my brows furrowed in a scowl. “Ashley!”She calle

I swiveled my chair around, my gaze met with Donald’s elated face, a bright smile screeching from his eyes, revealing his sparse and irregular dentition.“You know you’re one of my efficient and loyal staff”. I cooed, my right index finger pointed at him in satisfaction, an impressive grin worn on my face. Donald stood still, his arms swung behind him, folded and pressed against the center of his lower back, just above the hip, his head nodding in agreement. “Despite the recent happenings here at the office, you’ve stayed true to me.”I continued, my elbows resting on the armrest of my chair, my hands upright with my fingers intertwined as I acknowledged his commitment. “You just got yourself a salary raise, which will be made effective by the end of this month”. “Oh my goodness”, Donald’s hand flung to his face, his mouth covered in his palm in surprise. “Thank you so much Sir”. “Thank you”, he uttered, appreciating my kind gesture.“You may leave now”, I instructed,

“Yes? Why are you blowing up my phone?” “Why the fuck are you calling me?” I snorted, my face twisted in a scowl, my brows furrowed. “Ma’am, I haven’t gotten any feedback from you since the operation was executed”. Ryder uttered, his tone low and husky. “You idiot”. I spat, my voice rising. “You had just one…” I paused, my eyes glanced through the kitchen, just to be sure no one was eavesdropping. “You had just one job Ryder”, I whispered, holding my phone really close my mouth. “Just to get rid of him and you screwed it up Ryder”. I stopped my words, then walked towards the door that led into the kitchen. I peeped my head out of the door, my eyes making a quick glance at the living room. Then I stepped back into the kitchen. “You’re fully aware that it’s because you came highly recommended.” “That’s why I hired you for this job”. “But you disappointed me, dimwit”. I smirked, my face glammed with disgust. “How do you mean ma’am” He asked, his v

“How could you do this to your brother, Lucas?” My mother confronted, her voice laced with rage as she shook her head in disappointment. It was past 9am. I was all set to leave the house, but made a quick stop at the dining table to have breakfast, when my mother showed up from the kitchen, slamming me with questions. “I didn’t raise you to be this vile, Lucas!” She exclaimed ,her voice rising. I gazed off as I continued churning the smashed pieces of bread in my mouth, with my fingers hung around the handle of the coffee cup. She continued speaking, her voice dripping in fury.“You couldn’t even spare an hour to visit your brother at the hospital.” “What has come over you?” She thundered, the veins around her neck visible, her face stern. “Have you lost your mind?”“That’s enough”, I snapped, dropping the cup of coffee against the table, a bang sound piercing the air. My gaze drifting to hers, my anger seeping to the surface. “Ethan deserves every bit of pain h

“I’m impressed with the designs”. The client commended. “But I’m afraid, the stakes are high”. “Your designs passed the first criteria, which is a great step towards getting the contract”. The client informed, his voice low and calm. I sat at the dining table, my phone pressed against my ears, as I and one of my clients discussed. “I request that the elaborated designs are sent by tomorrow, Mr. Brooks”. “Alright, I will get it sorted”. The line went dead. I sighed deeply, my mind troubled. Emilia was the one that outsourced for the designers that worked on the sketch.I should call her right away, since she has been the one discussing with the designers and also understands the scope of the project.It's only right she’s brought on board with this. I thought aloud, my fears deflated. I need this contract for the Brook’s franchise. It will increase our revenue for the month. I picked up my phone from the dining table, and then dialed Emilia’s number. Just

“I won’t let you leave without you telling me what I did wrong”. Fredrick retorted, his brows furrowed. “You owe me that at least”. I paid no attention to his outburst as I went ahead with clearing my desk in silence. “Say something Emilia”. He demanded, slamming his palm against my desk. The bang sound echoed through the room, my nerves jumpy as I jerked in my seat, my eyes narrowed in fear. My gaze drifted to his face, his eyes twitching, his palm visibly shaking. “I just don’t belong here Fredrick”, I whispered, my expression sad as I gently stood up from my seat to take my leave. Fredrick stared blankly into space, his gaze fixed on my seat. “But I….”Before he could complete his sentence, I had already gotten out of the office, shutting the door behind me. I couldn’t bear to see him suffer especially for something beyond his control. My chest panged with a dull ache, a wave of guilt washing over me as I walked down the stairs.
