CHAPTER 125

last update Last Updated: 2025-08-20 22:13:32

JAYDEN’S POV

Three days. Three goddamn days of endless meetings in Paris. Lunch meetings, closing deals, and negotiations that dragged until early hours of the morning. My body was here, but my heart and mind were back in New York.

Back with my daughter.

Ashley’s birthday had come and gone, and I hadn't been there. The guilt gnawed at me every second I wasn’t working. I told myself it was for her— this business, these endless meetings and boardrooms war. But what good was success if I kept missing the moments that mattered?

Today, I had to do something. Something small but meaningful.

The Louis Vuitton store was my stop. If I knew my daughter—and I damn well did—she loved them in pinks. Bags, clothes, shoes, anything with that touch of softness against her fiery spirit. I pushed through the glass doors, greeted by polished smiles and polite bows.

“Good afternoon, sir. How may we assist you?” One of the staff greeted me.

“I need bags in pink,” I said, adjusting the cufflinks on my shi

    MICHEAL'S POV If looks could kill, Liam would already be six feet under. Ashley hadn't stopped glaring at him since the vase shattered. It didn't matter that most of her things were already packed by Liam and that all that was left was waiting for the moving truck—Ashley’s day had been completely ruined by that one broken vase.And I find it hard to support her this time. Because I don't just get it. A vase was just a vase, right? It's replaceable if broken. But judging by the way she sat beside me now with her arms crossed, cheeks flushed from anger, I was starting to realize this was more than just about some piece of porcelain.Liam, of course, wasn't helping. He scoffed from the passenger seat. “I mean, it's just a vase. I don't get why she's so pissed.”I didn't even have the time to react before Ashley shot up with fury in her eyes, ready to lunge at him.“Ash…” I grabbed her, pulling her down quickly and setting her on my lap before she actually scratched his face off. “Enough

    MICHEAL'S POV It had been a week. One damn week of silence, and it was eating me alive.The last time I'd seen Ashley was the day after her birthday. Since then, all I got was excuses— “baby, I'm busy, or let's talk later.” I kept telling myself she needed space, but the truth was simple: I missed her. The ache of not having her near me was sharper than I care to admit.So, I did what I always did when something clawed at me—I buried myself in work. Meetings, contracts, late night at the office. But even in the middle of presentations, my thoughts drifted to her smile, her voice, the way she looked at me like I was the only one in the room.And still, despite everything, I couldn’t shake the unease. Tyler's little stunt on the yacht replayed in my head more than I wanted. That's why I still had Liam watching her. Not that I fully trusted him—hell no—but he'd saved her once, and that earned him a credit.Just as I was flipping through files on my desk, the office door swung open witho

    AUSTIN’S POVIt's been a week since Ashley’s birthday, yet the images won't leave me. I keep replaying them in my head no matter how hard I try to shove them into the dark corner of my mind.Her laughter, the way she leaned into Micheal as if he was her safe place, her lips on his.And that look in her eyes—God, that look. Like he was her whole world.That should've been me.I've been here all her life. I've protected her from heartbreaks, held her when she cried, and loved her quietly while she drifted through people who never deserved her. And now? A rich man, twice her age, swoops in and claims her like she's his prize. No. I can't let it happen. Not without a fight.I dragged a hand through my hair, trying to focus on anything else when my phone rang.An unknown number flashed across the screen.I frowned, answering cautiously. “Hello?”“Austin Carter,” a voice said smoothly, like he'd been goggling about me all day.My chest tightened. “How do you know my name?”The stranger chuc

    ASHLEY'S POV Michael's jaw flexed. “What are you doing here, Liam?”“Saving your girl, apparently.” Liam’s eyes flicked to me, then back to Michael. “Nice to see you too, brother.”Micheal closed the distance in two strides, his glare fixed on Tyler. “You spiked her drink?”Tyler wiped the blood off his lip. “I didn’t…”Micheal grabbed him and shoved him back against the rail. “Try again.”“I didn't do anything.” Tyler's voice cracked.“Please.”Liam snorted. “He’s lying. And oh…he gifted the little one that necklace around her neck and even helped her put it on. He had eyes on her all night.”What the hell? How does he even know that?He wasn't there earlier.Michael's attention snapped to me. “Is this true?”I shook my head quickly. “Baby…please, listen to me.”Michael's grip only tightened on Tyler’s shirt, grabbing his neck so tight.“Bro,” Liam said lazily, “If you're gonna toss him overboard, do it quick and let's get on with the party. I'm starving.”I glared at Liam and quick

    ASHLEY'S POV The first thing I noticed when I stepped onto the yacht was the way the water shimmered under the late afternoon sun, like someone had spilt liquid gold all over the ocean.“Wow,” Sophie breathed beside me. “This is insane.” Michael’s hand rested lightly on the small of my back as he guided me up to the polished deck steps. “Make yourselves comfortable. Drinks are in the lounge.”Sophie wandered off with Jade, already gushing about the bar, but I stood with Micheal.“You didn't tell me you had all this going on. Sneaky much.”He smirked. “If I'd told you, it wouldn’t have been a surprise.”I glanced around—the gleaming wood, the soft hum of the engines, the faint scent of salt in the air. “You’re just full of surprises today.”“That's the plan,”he murmured, and for a second, his gaze locked on mine in a way that made my chest feel too tight. “And spoiling you is part of that plan.”One of Austin's friends, Nate, appeared from the lounge side. “Nice boat, Mr Kingston.
