Ashley’s POV

“Well, well, well. That was awkward as hell.” Janet drawled the second the door closed behind Jeff.

Will nodded, agreeing with her. “Indeed, it was. What did that guy come here to do anyway?”

“He just came to talk about some stuff,” I said vaguely, remembering that I hadn’t seen the news of Jeff’s father’s death on the media yet, which meant I shouldn’t be telling every Tom, Dick, and Harry about it until his family was ready to break the news.

“I don’t like the fact that he’s snif

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Silence

    Jeff’s POV"You fucking bastard! What did she do to you to deserve such a thing?" I ground out through clenched teeth and charged forward with inhuman strength that caught both myself and those holding me by surprise. Their grips loosened temporarily, and I charged straight at Will, knocking him to the ground in the blink of an eye. I managed to throw two very satisfying punches at him before the men managed to pry me off him again."You bloody idiots! I'm not paying you heavily to stand around and watch me get attacked!" Will screamed at them, wiping his bleeding nose.Seeing the blood gave me such immense satisfaction, even as I watched Will advance on me, his face a mask of fury. His fist connected with my jaw, snapping my head back and immediately splitting my lip."Take him inside. I'm not sure I totally believe that no one knows he was going to my place. We would need to finish all this and clear all the evidence tonight. I can't take any more risks than I have already taken. I

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   The ambush

    Jeff’s POVThe longer Will drove and the longer I followed him, the more certain I became that this wasn’t just an ordinary outing.Most normal human beings didn’t leave the comfort of their beds in the middle of the night to go on a long drive outside town.If Will had something to hide, then this area would be the best place for him to hide it.The roads were deserted for the most part, except for Will, me, and the occasional vehicle that drove by.If that bastard indeed had Ashley … oh, God, if he did, I would tear him to shreds with my bare hands before the police even had a chance to deal with him!The further we drove, the rougher and narrower the roads became, until the city lights disappeared behind us.I drove with my headlights off, always careful to maintain an undetectable distance from Will. It wouldn't do for him to notice me following him and change his course. By the time he finally slowed down, my heart was pounding. What was I about to find? I eased my car to a stop

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Suspicious activity

    Jeff’s POVThe closer I got to Will’s neighborhood, the more I began to question my sanity. What the hell was I even doing going here at this time of the night?What on earth was I going to do when I finally arrived at his neighborhood? Drive up to his compound, knock on the gate, and ask him to let me in at this time of the night, as if we were best friends? That was preposterous.Even if I could actually knock on his door, what would I give as my reason for doing so, especially at this time of the night? That I wanted to check his basement to see if he was hiding Ashley in there?I shook my head tiredly. This whole endeavor of mine tonight wasn’t just ridiculous. It was worse than ridiculous.If anyone found out that I had driven all the way here in the middle of the night and just lurked around Will’s neighborhood and house like a damn stalker, I would look completely unhinged.And maybe I had actually come unhinged from lack of sleep. After all, throughout these past days since As

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Renewed hope

    Ashley’s POV “Well, they would want to trail you for several reasons I can think of off the top of my head. For starters, you were fucking both friends, one of whom was your supposed girlfriend, and then they caught you, after which you proceeded to house one of them. You opened your mouth to inform the police that you think both women were abducted from your residence.”“And so wh …”The man cut him off. “You keep taking unnecessary risks, like taking pictures of that woman and sending them to her boss, when the original plan was to off both women, stage their deaths, and forget about it. How long do you think the lie you told everyone about them being addicts is going to hold, especially if you keep sneaking around this place in the middle of the night like a damn thief? All that’s needed is for some nosy paparazzi or the police to follow you here, and the rest will be history.”My heart started beating fast with hope as I listened to the conversation. Will remained silent to all

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   The disagreement

    Ashley’s POVIt couldn’t have been more than a few days since I got locked up in the dungeon, but somehow I had lost track of time and didn’t know exactly how many days it had been.I had stopped crying. Crying didn’t do me any good. It only showed them how weak I was and made them go after me all the more like the bloodthirsty demons they were.Ever since Janet breathed her last, I had become empty, for lack of a better word. It was hours after she died before someone came to remove her body.I didn’t bother to look up when heavy footsteps echoed outside the cell, and the door creaked open, because I already knew why they were here.I was still sitting in the same position that I had been sitting for hours, holding on to Janet’s hand.The guard who opened the door came over to check on Janet, no doubt already knowing that she was dead.“Move,” he ordered me in a bored and annoyed voice, as if he was annoyed that Janet had had the nerve to die and give him the unwanted job of having t

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   A sense of urgency

    Jeff’s POVI scoffed under my breath, my grip tightening around the remote. I was a hundred per cent sure that this bastard was laying it on thick, yet none of the people who were interviewing him could see through him.The whole sad bit he was trying to portray felt rehearsed to me. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if he had stood in front of the mirror and practiced the exact way to look devastated.“There’s just something off about this guy,” I muttered.Eliza glanced at the screen, then back at me. “Off? How do you mean?”“Can't you see how fake he looks? He’s clearly overdoing the sadness and guilt. It doesn’t feel real to me.”Eliza directed her gaze back to the television and studied Will for a moment, but after a few seconds, she shook her head, unsurely.“I don’t know, Jeff. He seems genuine enough to me.”“Really? You don't think he's pretending and laying it on thick?” I asked her, frowning.“No, I don't. If something like that really did happen in his house, it would make
