Ch-191. Is he a mistake?

Ashley's POV:He goes silent for a second, so I repeat my question. “Tell me, Ethan! I am asking you, what do you mean by what I am trying to portray…”“That you and that child make up for a perfectly happy family.”His words hit me, like the attacks of several whips raining down from every possible direction at once. For a moment, I am not even able to feel anything at all… and my mind goes completely blank.And the thought that he was really this cruel from the beginning and I really have fallen for a monster, who has no mercy for anyone or anything apart from himself and his ego.Like how dare he says that I am not happy with my only child? On what basis can he claim that we aren't a happy family…! And leave that, what authority does he have, to make this announcement?What more does he want from me? I have already left his life in the past, never claimed child support or tried to prove that Adrin is his son! Even now, I haven't ever tried to arrange any meetings with them, in fac

Ch-192. Still love me

Ashley's POV:He is screaming, yelling and stuttering at the same time; and one thing that I have noticed in Ethan over time, is that he never stutters.His voice never shakes, he is a person with a firm voice and stern personality– this is why, seeing him stutter while his voice is becoming increasingly hoarse, is turning out to be a little difficult for me.My mind goes completely blank for a moment, and I'm not sure what is going on in front of my eyes, for a very long time.It finally clicks and I realize that he has been demanding an answer from me… Throughout this time, the questions that are leaving his mouth have all been directed towards me… the questions which I indeed have answers for.But at the same time, I don't really know how I am supposed to give those answers to him.And before I can formulate a single reply, he sits on the chair with a thump as tears start to roll down his eyes.For a second, I'm left watching in utter disbelief before a slight flutter of panic ris

Ch-193. Steamy times

Ethan's POV:My heart misses a beat and my breath hitches in my throat. The moment she mentions that Adrin, the sweet little boy I had seen on the day of the award ceremony, is her son– her biological son, I lost it. For a moment I'm completely unable to fathom the thought of her being with someone else, touched by someone else, hugged and kissed by someone else! There is no way that she could be with someone else… that's my place, and it will always remain mine.Within the span of a few seconds, I have started feeling like it would have been a million times better if she had simply stabbed me several times with a knife, rather than breaking this news to me that there is even a single percent of chance that she could move on, and she might have used it too.All of a sudden, my life has started to seem more like a burden to me, than a blessing, as my heart clenches.I am feeling this pain with such an intensity that I end up losing all my senses for a moment… whatever she is saying,

Ch- 194. Phone call

Ashley's POV:Everything has just happened so quickly, way too fast for me to even process it, let alone to think logically.I was so confused that there was no way I could have resisted him… in fact, even if all the events would have happened slowly, I still have a doubt that my body would never have rejected Ethan. He was, he always has been, and by every passing minute, he is becoming more and more injurious to me… giving me the feeling of being addicted to him.Because I know he isn't good for my health… but I am still not pushing him away.After all, he was the man I have fallen for, he is my first love… he is the person who stole my first kiss and then several kisses after that, because nobody has ever touched me… nor have I let anyone touch myself, after him. And as our eyes meet, for a moment, I forget everything that has happened between us in the past.The pain, the betrayal, the heartbreak, everything is forgotten, leaving me with only one question: what would have happen

Ch-195. My son!

Ashley's POV:I don't know if I have pushed him a little too hard, or if he is just hurt by the act of me pushing him.But whatever the reason is, it seems like he isn't just hurt… it seems like he is badly injured too, and if there would have been any technology designed to detect the metaphorical bleeding of the heart; because of the heartbreak that we all go through in our lives, then he would have been declared as an extremely critical patient.Who would not only need to be shifted into the ICU on an urgent basis, but also be sent for further procedures… because there was no chance of saving him.But gladly, nobody dies from heartbreak– not that I am aware of.And honestly, at this moment, I am not even worried about him, either. Because I know that there are only three calls I tend to receive on Saturdays.From Stuart and Stella, Mike, or Adrin's day care. And right now, I know two out of these three would not be calling me in any condition, since they both know I am busy at a c

Ch-196. Left eyebrow

Ashley's POV:Ethan's doubt was right, I do have a fear of speed.I have never imagined that someone can actually drive this fast! The moment he asked me for the address and I gave it to him, he passed that to his guard and before he could have nodded to his command or managed to say that he would be calling the ambulance and the team of doctors to be present there as per instructed, he had already driven almost half of the way, and it doesn't stopped there.I don't even know how many signals we have jumped and how much fine he is going to get for speeding, because he has covered the ten minutes drive from the place where we were to the daycare , which could easily be fifteen minutes if we had waited for the signals, in less than five minutes…In three minutes and twenty two seconds to be exact.But I don't care… I don't care about anything, not even my own safety.And the moment he presses the brakes as we arrive in front of the park, I practically jump out of the car without any del

Ch-197. Blood match

Ethan's POV:The whole route, Ashley has stayed in my arms, resting her head on my shoulder, clenching my hands tightly in her anxiety while looking at Adrin holding so much fear, concern and affection in her eyes. This was the moment that made me realize, I don't care if Adrin is my son, the son of my rival, or some random kid from the street… If Ashley is calling him ‘son’, then I don't care whose DNA he is carrying in his body or whose blood is flowing in his veins. He is my son, and that's final. It takes us around ten minutes to reach the hospital, and another two to get Adrin into the operation theater.And the visual of little Adrin lying unconscious on the stretcher makes Ashley break down completely in my arms.Although this is far from the perfect family time I have imagined with her and our children, it is still a perfect family dynamic which I am ready to sell my soul for.Because even though my heart is getting angry at Mike with every passing minute, for not being pre

Ch-198. Business Ethics

Ashley's POV:It was a blessing that Stuart and his wife rushed to the hospital after hearing the news of Adrin being admitted, otherwise it was getting difficult for me to handle him alone as the medicine was making him fuzzy and cranky.And even if I would have handled him alone there are two important things lined up for me to clear them up as soon as I can, otherwise both those things were calling me the baddest mother of the entire universe.The second thing was to check the cctv of the park before I question the daycare and confront that Lily Allen, because she is the reason that my son has to go through blood transfusion in this age and seeing the stitches it was boiling my blood every single time, as I remember how she has delayed everything with several minutes in only God knows what thought or assumption.And this is the second most important thing for me to complete tomorrow before the afternoon, as the first and the most one was to call the clients and fixed a meeting with

Ch-199. Not reachable

Ethan's POV:I know I have to leave the hospital the moment I see the plea in her beautiful blue eyes, because is this girl still unaware of the power she possesses over me?I mean she just has to command me to jump from a building of a hundred floors and I would jump without a second thought, she just has to ask me to stop breathing and the next moment everyone else is hearing from me that I am allergic to oxygen.But although I have left the hospital, I wasn't able to leave the tension about of both of them being well even for a second and knowing that she must be already troubled because of Adrin, I know it would be a bad idea to call her right now and disturb her …or fraction of the sleep she might be getting this night.This was when I remembered that Mike would also be there by now and the reality hit me like a truck that no matter how much I felt connected to the little boy I just met a few hours ago…. I don't hold any rights on him, and even if I get married to his mother, I s

Ch-200. Business meeting

Ethan's POV:Meeting!! Did I hear it right! She has gone for some business meeting, from which she won't be back till afternoon…No, this is not possible. She can't leave her child alone for that long… I know her too well to know that there is something fishy in this statement.This is when I realize something I should have noticed a long time ago, that she doesn't even have a brother!How come she suddenly has a brother now, and where the hell is that Mike Houston when his fianceé and son need him the most?!Really! She is leaving me for that jerk!?Or at least she is thinking about it, because I am sure that is not going to happen in the next five hundred years, or any other of her lifetimes!! I am not going to let it happen…“Anything else, Sir? Do you want to leave any message for her?”The receptionist pulls me out of the zone I am lost in, and without any second thought, the words jump out of my mouth. “Yeah! How is Adrin–”“He is fine sir! He will be sleeping till afternoon,
