"How could I? You're my wife. I won't have the heart to correct you in front of everyone else. You'll feel embarrassed that way and might probably don't want to come here with me again. I, as a husband, should at least save your face," he said charmingly and that melted her heart to the core."But... it's going to cause your work to become less efficient at Rose Academy. Because you will need more time to rearrange the models there.""No, honey..." he grabbed her chin and made her meet his gaze. She looked dejected as if she was making a grave mistake."You had a point about what you said earlier. About me being unfair. I acknowledged that. I guess it's time for me to change my way anyhow. After all, AG Atelier had stood with a strong foundation now. Everyone that worked here was an expert. I'm sure a little change to the modelling agency wouldn't affect anything. Sure enough, Hillman and Flora would be able to manage those changes. In fact, I think even though I told them to stop usi

Ashton embraced her from behind lovingly. He could sense her pain. Although they were already married, it was not really a surprise to see Ashley having that reaction. After all, she had been together with Karl for five years and they just broke up a few days ago. In fact, Ashton was kind of amazed that she did not break down while watching the wedding being held."Honey, if you want to go home-""No," she cut him off immediately and stared at him. There was a concerned look on his face."I just thought that it would be better if we leave before the others see us. I mean, none of the guests see us come in before. So if you want to go home now, no one would know that we've ever come here," Ashton explained considerately."Why should I leave? He invited us, didn't he? And you had promised me that you would help me. Are you backing out now?""Of course not, honey. I'm just concerned about you.""I'm fine. Let's go and show our faces," she said and dragged him out of the private lounge, g

"Oh, crap! We better get going now," Hana got fret suddenly. "Why? What happened ?" Ashley was confused and quickly turned around to follow the woman from behind. Then she saw right away what Hana meant. Karl was heading towards Ashton and Lucia was trying to catch up with his steps from behind. "Hi, I saw you came with Ashley before. I have never seen you before though. Would you mind if we have a little introduction?" Karl said to Ashton directly right after he reached half a meter in front of that guy. At the same time, Ashley and Hana also reached the scene and they both quickly stood right beside their respective partners. "You're finally done talking with your bestie?" Instead of responding to Karl, Ashton talked to his wife first, deliberately kissing her temple lovingly in front of them all and even wrapping his hand around her waist to make her stand closer to him. He was making sure the view of her and him looked intimate in front of Karl. "Yeah, sorry it took so long,"

Having sensed that Ashton was picking on Lucia, Karl changed his target instantly and pleaded to Ashley instead."Ashley, please save my face. I can't have this important occasion cancel. My family would be embarrassed if that happens," Karl said beggingly. But Ashley looked away from him instantly and refused to get involved. She glanced at her husband and she could feel a domineering aura emerging from him again.Seeing Ashley ignoring him, Karl finally turned his body and looked at his wife with a mad expression. He could not believe that Ashley would give him a cold shoulder considering that they had known each other for so long and even used to have such a special relationship before. But his heart convinced him that it was his fault to begin with and maybe this was how karma worked on him."Apologize to them immediately," he ordered Lucia and that woman seemed reluctant again. But Karl grabbed her arm harshly and pushed her forward to face Ashton and Ashley.Lucia could feel as

He was well aware that all his family members pretty much still loved Ashley like she was part of the family. But she was now married to Ashton Grey. Karl did not want to offend that man in any way so he tried to hinder his mother from speaking with Ashley too much. "Why didn't you tell me that Ashley was coming? She should have sat with us in the front row before. She was part of the family," Lily reprimanded her son immediately. "Mom, she-" "How terrible were you to do this kind of thing to her. I helped raise her like my own daughter and now you just threw her away for a richer woman," Lily cut her son off. She was so disappointed that Karl did not end up with Ashley. "Mom, I-" "Shut it. Ashley, let's sit with us. The others will be so glad to see you again. You haven't come to our home for like months. We all had missed you very much, dear," Lily grabbed Ashley's wrist and tried to bring her to the table of Karl's family members. "Mom, don't..." "Aunt Lily, I can't..." Ash
