Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 11 GOSSIP
Threatening her won't really work but under Anton's willfulness, she has to give in to avoid a lot more complications of their agreement in the next couple of months before it ends. Moreover, he has full control of it in any way so she didn't bother to argue with him about it as long as he didn't demand something harder than those conditions, she was fine by it. As soon as Ashley saw the rays of sunrise from the window, she jumped out of bed and proceeded to the bathroom for her morning routine. However, she recalled that she didn't have any spare clothes to change and toiletries to use thus she went out of the room with her car key in hand. She tiptoed when she passed outside his door towards downstairs, thinking that her boss was still sleeping. However, when her hand reached to twist the knob, a cold voice coming from behind froze her on the spot. "Were you trying to escape?!" Startled, her eyes widened as she swirled around. "G-good morning, Mr. Stanford." She greeted while
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 12 THE FAMOUS
A pin-drop silence lingered in Anton's office as both stared at each other's faces. At that moment, Ashley seemed to pick up the pieces through his words and his actions lately. However, recalling her past, she managed to scoff."If this is part of your goal to get back on your footing then I don't have anything to say.""What's that supposed to mean?" Anton questioned, sounding confused."I'll deal with the gossip if that's what you want but you must think twice about this "seduce thing" as it might affect your reputation." She warned him."How about you? Won't it affect your reputation as well?" He asked her.'As if you care if you destroyed my name!' She thought. 'You love it when others looked lowly at me!'"Why bother about reputation? I won't work here forever," she said with a shrug but in fact, she was really itching to discourage him from using such a trick.She was afraid that his business partners would use it against him in the future and she didn't want that to happen. N
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 13 FEEL LIKE CELEBRITY
Ashley maintained an indifferent look until she returned to her office. Though Clara made an effort to approach her earlier, she didn't take it seriously since that was her first time seeing her. Furthermore, given that she had a terrible past, it was hard for her to trust anyone she just encountered not to mention that her boss stood beside her like they were old friends. She might have sworn to spend a year for her redemption but that doesn't mean that she has to welcome everyone she encounters along the way, especially to people around him. That was too risky! However, the look on Clara's face amused her to the point that she couldn't refrain from smirking as she readied herself to go out as Anton instructed her to socialize with them after office hours. She wasn't likely to come to such gatherings but he left her with no other choice. In short, he pulled the strings of her weakness to make her give in!As she entered the restaurant, she was welcomed by a strong aroma of grilled
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 14 KATE ASHTON
She knows her body very well. There was something wrong with her behavior, and she guessed that it must be one of the possible side effects of what she'd been through 7 years ago thus she concentrated on fighting it no matter what.Trying hard to control the possibility of them getting into a big mess, Ashley thought of something that could divert both their attention."Anton Stanford, do you want to know where I've been and who I was with the entire night?" She tries to provoke him as she senses that he is about to get carried away with that euphoric feeling."As long as it's not a man, I don't give a damn!" Ashley laughed maniacally. "I was with her! Do you still not care?!"Anton's eyes turned starkly dark and the next thing he knew, he had her neck clasped tightly between his fingers."I dare you to say that again!" He demanded whilst gritting his teeth in so much anger. "Say that again!"Though she was already choking, she still continued to provoke him."I went... I went to se
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 15 FOR ATHENA'S SAKE
Two days later... Ashley stared blankly at the messages she received. [Athena is worried about you!] [Call me when you get back!] "What's that?! He seriously texted you?!" Kyle had been standing behind her for God knows how long yet she failed to notice his presence as her mind went elsewhere. She dropped her phone back on the table and sighed. "I need to get back to work." "Are you worried about him?" He asked her curiously. "I'm feeling better now..." "Were you able to find out everything through the data?" Kyle continued to ask shifting his face into seriousness. She shook her head. "Something doesn't add up. It seemed incomplete." She said, "Are you sure that this is all you got? You didn't hide something from me, right?" Kyle immediately darted his gaze away from her as soon as he sensed her getting suspicious. However, no matter how fast he was, she was way faster than him therefore she noticed him at a glance. "Kyle Ashton!" She yelled at him. "Spill it out befor
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 16 LUNATIC
"I'll pretend this conversation didn't occur in the first place, Mr. Stanford!"Anton couldn't hide his frustration when he heard her response earlier."Pretend?!" He grumbled as he dramatically slumped his back at his swivel chair. "Can she really do that? How?"He shook his head. 'Forget it!' He thought. 'At least I'm trying to be nice to her but she refused it.'As office hours started, he began to get busy with the documents piled on his table.When the clock hit 10 a.m., he heard someone knocking on his door."Come in," He uttered without looking up."Mr. Stanford," Ashley muttered professionally. "It's time for your brunch appointment with Miss Amber!"He looked up for a brief moment."Cancel it!" He instructed in a firm tone as he assumed signing the documents."Pardon, sir?" She seemed to have heard him wrong thus she affirmed. "I'm not going to meet her!" He repeated without further explanation.Ashley stared at him, holding her frown from surfacing.She didn't know the sto
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 17 SHAKEN
"Take a seat!" Amber demanded wilfully as soon as they arrived at their reserved table.Ashley took the space across her, and Anton followed suit, taking the spare one on the side. Never had she thought that he would insist on bringing her to this place after telling her to cancel their appointment with the woman earlier. And since he's her boss, she had no choice but to agree even though she was against of idea of facing a lunatic woman like "That's not the seat you're supposed to sit on," Amber whined shamelessly at him then she glared at Ashley whose eyes were coldly focused on her, demanding. "Changed sits with me!" The latter tilted her head sideways as if searching for something around before standing up from her seat and going to Amber's side. "It would be much better if you just allow me to go instead of having me here as your witness." She grumbled under her breath knowing that this would make the woman satisfied. However, Anton heard the words she said, and for some re
Trapped In Shackles 2 Chapter 18 COLD SHIVERS
"How is she?"Anton asked as soon as the doctor stormed out of his guest room."Her vitals are normal but she seemed to be suffering from emotional distress, Mr. Stanford." The doctor responded in a professional manner.Though he might've already known the reason as to why she fainted, he still asked."Emotional distress?"The doctor pushed his glasses higher on the bridge of his nose before he answered."I'm not sure, Mr. Stanford. I'm afraid I can't tell you the exact reason but I can refer someone if you like. That person might be the one to tell you the right answers you need to hear."Saying so, he took something from his bag and handed it over to him. "You can set an appointment with him."Anton stared at the calling card in his hand as soon as the doctor left.'Would you even tell me if I ask you about it? What made you like this?' He thought as he shoved the card into his pockets and stormed into the guest room.The mere sight of her lifeless brought a sense of regret inside h
