CHAPTER 3

~ Ashley's POV ~

"What the hell" I muttered as Pamela chuckled. "Hey you thought you could screw my man without getting on my bad side?? No!!" She snarled as.....the door Burst open, revealing a lady with a little camera, recording the whole scene.

The funny aspect was that, Pamela never showed........any interest in me before,I thought they were in a loveless marriage.

"Good,this is going to.....make the cover pages and headlines for tomorrow,bye bitch" she said and walked out.

Why was my life always a mess?? What exactly did I do wrong to.... deserve such a thing?

I wiped my tears,made sure my make up.....was okay before joining Bradley on his table.

"What took you so long?" He asked as.....I rolled my eyes.

"Like you care" I replied as my gaze landed on my mom.

She had her eyes fixed on I and Bradley and it was creepy, like she wanted to.....skin me alive.

.

.

Finally the...... speeches were over and it was time to......drink and while away time but my legs aches so much,so I decided to sit and watch everything going on.

"I see you finally got......a good cock to ride your virgin snatch" mom said as.....I clenched my fist.

Sometimes I wonder if......am really her daughter,cause she super hates me but am not about to back down,am going to show her who.......the real bitch is.

"Oh....yeah,too bad yours is already slacked and cannot be managed by hot and striking dudes like Bradley, don't stare too much,he has two women" I replied and went to join Poppy on her table.

"So did you enjoy the party?" Poppy asked as I rolled my eyes.

"Of course not, you should know me........I hate parties where I can't dance,or where hip hop is dead" I replied as Brandon chuckled.

"You're so much like Benita" he replied as I furrowed my brows.

"So why isn't she here?" I asked as they stole glances at each other before smiling.

"She declined the invite" Poppy replied as my mind drifted back to Pamela.

Did she leave after that.....stunt or she's somewhere around, looking for the next plan?

"It's time to go home, don't you think?" Bradley whispered into my ear.......as Poppy frowned.

"Yeah, bye Poppy,see you" I said, lifting my dress a little.

.

.

* Outside *

.

.

"Don't tell me you're leaving without your wife" Pamela said, holding a beer bottle and a beer glass as she smiled evily.

"Tell me, who's she? Your mistress,call girl?" She asked as reporters began to........ take pictures and record.

Oh my,am sure gonna make the headline tomorrow.

"Take her away" Bradley yelled at his guards as they pulled her into her car while we got into ours and moved out.

I must have fallen asleep cause,the next thing I knew was my head touching my soft pillows.

Yeah,I needed the rest and I'll definitely get it.

.

.

* Morning *

I woke up with a pounding head and a hot......bowl of soup waiting for me.

"Gosh.....am so happy" I fled to the bathroom to have my bath and brush my teeth before strolling out.

"Did you enjoy your sleep?" Bradley asked as.....I turned to look at him. How did he get here?

I didn't even hear him come in.....what the hell.

"Yeah,I did" I replied, taking a full spoon of soup.

"That's good,I have an assignment for you" he said as......I looked at him he wasn't smiling and it got me nervous.

"I'll be..... going to..... Japan for a two days conference meeting,take this,I don't care how you're going to do it but......I don't expect you to be a virgin when I return" he said coldly as I stared at the vibrator in my hands.

Was he serious?? How dare he? I threw the vibrator back at him as he flinched.

"You're an animal, I'll never do it, never" I yelled as he smirked before walking to the door.

"Then ...... I'll tell one of the driver to do it......I don't do virgins" with that,he walked out of my bedroom.....

..

~ Ashley's ~

The next morning was peaceful since arrogant Bradley wasn't at home.

I walked down the stairs in my PJs as I saw Pamela.

She rolled her eyes at me.....as I snickered at her, maybe she thinks am scared of her......I don't give a fuck if she hates me,am gonna make my stay here real good.

"I see you're up bitch" Pamela said as I rolled my eyes. "Of course, you didn't expect me to die in my sleep,did you?" I asked, searching for an apple in the fridge.

"Of course so you can stop sucking off my husband's dick,it's mine you know" she replied and I was about talking back when Benita walked down the stairs.

"Oh .....anna really need your help,I can't seem to find a dress for prom,and it's freaky" she said as I sighed.

She still doesn't know that,am not Anna all thanks to Bradley.

"Okay,are we going shopping or it's an online shopping?" I asked as she smiled sheepishly.

"Let's go shopping,but I don't want any paparazzi asking questions,let's disguise" she said as Pamela snickered and walked away.

.

.

The first store we stormed into was dolce and gabana....... like seriously she doesn't like any clothes here and it's annoying.

"Oh..... Michael is not gonna like this" she said, grumbling as I looked at her.

"If I may ask,who's Michael?" I asked as blush rose to her cheeks, making me to chuckle

"Oh ...... your boo" I teased as she practically turned red.

"Come on,let's try Victoria's secret.....am sure they've got something sexy just for teenagers like you" I said, trying to cheer her up.

.

.

By the time we finished shopping,it was getting late and I was really exhausted.......am never gonna follow her for shopping,it's either we're doing it online or nothing.

She finally settled for a baby pink ball dress, actually made her look smallish and cute.

The car rode into the compound as I noticed few other cars which weren't there.

"Oh em gee,mom and dad are back" Benita squealed as I blocked my ears. She's so noisy......I wonder how her friends cope with her.

Moreover,she's so young Brad's almost thirty while she's sixteen and Brandon is twenty five,so strange.

.

.

They weren't in the living room when we got in,so I sneaked into my bedroom to find Bradley seated on my bed.

What! I thought the trip was for two days, gosh he's such a kill joy.

I pretended not to.......see him and headed to the bathroom but his words stopped me.

"My parents are around" he said but I didn't want to face him.

"So,when you're asked who you are, just say you're my mistress nothing more,I don't want you getting close to my family,am just gonna spare you for going out with my kid sis but it won't happen again" he said as I smirked and turned to look at him.

.

.

"Am glad you've placed your rules,well here's mine........am gonna get closer to anyone I choose to,am gonna speak cause I have a mouth,am not gonna give into you,tell me how much did you pay my manager to buy me,my mom's gonna pay you,you don't know how to treat a woman!" I yelled as he stood up and began walking towards me.

I didn't back away cause I didn't want him to think I was scared of him.

I was expecting him to yell,rant instead,his lips crushed on mine in a demanding way.

He nibbled on my lower lips as I moaned, making his tongue to move freely into my mouth,I hated myself for reacting to it .....and tried to free myself but his grip on me thightened while he broke the kiss and looked into my eyes.

"Let me go" I muttered as his eyes became darker. "You're mine,get that into your head and I haven't forgotten about the vibrator, don't test my patience" with that,he walked out of my bedroom....

.

~ Pamela's POV ~

.

.

Right now,am sitted in the investigators office. I received a call earlier from him about my missing sister.

"Mrs Barcelo,it's good to see you" he said, smiling but I wasn't here for that,I wanted info and I need to get it.

"From my search, your missing sister is in this town, you must know a certain Miss woodall?' he asked as my mind drifted back to Ashley's mom. Yes I know that's her mom cause I did a background check on her. But how does this relates with her......or is......

Oh no,I just hope am wrong,she can't be my sister.

"Of course I know her" I replied as he nodded.

"She gave birth on the day your sister was born but your sister went missing,so I'll suggest we undergo a DNA test on her daughter to confirm" he said as I nodded.

Bradley's parents are back and I know they're about to...... transfer all and every wealth to him,if Ashley is my sister then she gets to enjoy the wealth.

No......I have to terminate our plan,am not giving Bradley a divorce!!!....

..

~ Pamela's POV ~

I walked into the house with different thoughts running through my mind,what did the investigator mean by......miss woodall baby,gosh I just hope am wrong.

I kept on walking until I bumped into...... Bradley.

"Oh....I thought you were on a trip to Japan?" I asked, looking at him. All my life, I've only classified him as best friend, I've never looked at him as anything more than that but I think am ready to change.

"Yeah but I changed my plans since dad and mom are back" he said as I chuckled.

"So how's Ashley, we've not really discussed about her you know" I asked as he sighed.

"She's a beautiful girl,she's nice but stubborn.......falling in love with her won't be hard" he said as my heart skipped.

Don't tell me he's already in love with that brat? I won't let that happen,she's no match for him

All I have to do is....... take her...cup after the dinner and it's set.

"Alright,see you at dinner" I said, walking up the stairs to my bedroom.

.

.

~ Ashley's POV ~

.

.

I just stepped out of the bathroom when.....a knock came through the door. Gosh I just hope it wasn't Bradley,I still haven't recovered from the kiss and all.

"Come in" I muttered as Benita walked in.

"Hey, dinner is served, just so you know.....my parents will be joining us and Bradley wants you there, right now" she said as I rolled my eyes.

His parents,what will they think of me? Won't they be annoyed that......am a mistress?? All these thoughts kept running through my mind......as I slid into a short green dress.

I walked down the stairs in line with Benita until we got to the dinning area where all eyes went up the minute we entered.

"Good evening everyone" I greeted as Benita chuckled. "You're funny Anna,no one's gonna answer" she said, taking her seat beside Brandon while I sat on the right hand side of Bradley.

All these while,his eyes never left my body and the atmosphere was becoming tense.

"I'll get straight to......the reason am here" Mrs Eva Barcelo said, giving me a distateful look. "Bradley, you had the guts to......... bring in a home wrecker,not only that you showcased her to the press, ridiculing your wife,how dare you?" She asked as my fork fell from my hands.

"Please excuse me" I said and was about standing up but......she stopped me.

"Don't you dare......or else I'll call the cops,who are you? How much is he paying you?" She asked as I turned to look at her.

Is she serious? Her son abducted me,now he's keeping here against my will and that's what she has to say?

"Mom enough!!! I don't care what you think or what you have to say........but am no longer interested in the marriage to Pamela,it can't work!!" He yelled as his father hit the table.

.

.

"Young Man, you'll speak to your mom with respect and that's final" Mr Stan yelled as Brandon pulled Pamela away.

"Sweetie you don't need to witness it" he muttered, kissing her forehead before pulling her upstairs.

Pamela had tears running down her cheeks as......she looked at me scornfully.

"You're going to send her away...... tonight or else am cancelling the transfer" Mr Stan threatened as Bradley laughed.

"Do more, after all it has always been an option, first you said if I wasn't married I won't get a place in the family business where I work tiredlessly,now am not gonna give into your demands am.....fed up" with that,he pulled me with him,out of the house and into his car as he sped off.

.

.

~ Pamela's POV ~

.

.

Everything going on ....was looking real. The look Bradley had on......was like he already loved Ashley...... well there's always a way to find out.

As Soon as his parents left,I took Ashley's fork and went to my bedroom,I need to give it to the doctor immediately so I changed and drove out.

.

.

~ Ashley's POV ~

.

.

"Bradley,stop it this is your sixth bottle" I begged cause am sure I won't be able to lift him...... once he's completely drunk.

"Why? Do you care for me?" He asked, pulling me on to his laps......as his alcoholic breath fanned my neck.

I gulped hard and he smirked before....... crashing his lips on mine,it was a forceful kiss and the only better thing was that.....we were in a secluded place in.....the bar.

The kiss ended as we were panting and staring into our eyes.

He licked my bottom lips as I shuddered before sending his hands underneath my dress to touch my panties.

"You're wet, come on.....am really gonna feast on you" he said as he pulled me out of the bar......

.

.

~ Poppy's POV ~

.

.

Gosh I had a hectic day......with thugs always visiting my bar am scared am gonna get a red card this year.

As I drove past the hospital,I saw Pamela's car...... driving in and it got me curious.

Was she sick, besides her in laws are in town and she's supposed to be with them so.......what's wrong.

.

.

I reversed my car and drove into......the hospital. I need to know what's wrong or what she's hiding.

I noticed her movement,it's as if......she was hiding from someone.....or doing something secretive.

She walked into the....... office and I got a glimpse of the investigator hired to search for our sister.

But what's he doing here? I thought as I placed my......ears on the door to hear.

The sound were muffled so I hid behind a door as they walked out...... together.

"Excuse me sir,uhmm miss Pamela came here, right?" I asked the doctor as he nodded.

"Yes,why?" He asked.

"Uhmm could you tell me the reason she came here and who's that guy?" I asked as he frowned.

"It's confidential..... please excuse me" he said as I smirked.

Pamela's hiding something and am going to find out......it better not be bad,cause dear sister you won't like my package.

Right now,I need to.....look for another investigator........i need to carry out my own search.......
