Semua Bab The CEO's Perfect Mistake Book 2 : Bab 11 - Bab 20

 Megan's POV "You could have said yes, Megan. For heaven’s sake, it was only a football ball," Alice barked at me after I tucked my son into his bed. I am just glad I have a good son. He never cried when I said no to his request, but I could see the disappointed look on Axel's face, and I hated myself for saying no to him. My best friend had been right—it was only a ball. But how could I quickly say no to my son? "I know, and I felt so bad about what I have done to Axel. I hated myself that after so many years, I still hated Ashton this much. He broke my heart, and until now, I don't even know how to pick up the broken pieces, Al," I replied, and I could tell by the way Alice smirked at me, she had something to say, but she tried her best to keep it to herself. "What? I know that look, Alice. After so many years of being together, crying and laughing together, I know what you are thinking right now, even if

 Ashton's POV"Are you ready?" my mom asked me as I stood in front of my father's VIP room at the hospital. My siblings were behind me; they had already come to see my father, and I was the only one among the family members who hadn't visited him. I am glad my mother respected my decision not to show up right away. "Yes, I am ready, Mom," I said, and she opened the door for me.I returned to Astikoz for the first time after eight years. I know it was because of the memories of Megan; even the beautiful memories I had with her turned sour and ugly after I learned she was with Gael, and what made me hate her more was her music. I used to love music so much that it became the most annoying thing in my life after Megan let Gael sing her music. And I wanted everything to change since I know music has nothing to do with my heartaches. I thought I was in a bad dream after getting inside my father's room when I found him i

Megan's POV"I told you so. I knew it; Gael is in love with you." Alice said as her eyes got so big when I told her about Gael's confession."Yeah, you were right. I can feel it too, Alice, but I tried to ignore all the signs since I couldn't love him back. I don't have the heart to hurt him because I know how much he took good care of us from the very start." I responded."Oh, poor Gael, can you at least give him a chance, Megan?" Alice asked, and I could feel the pain in my heart as I shook my head."I don't feel anything romantic towards him, Al; all I have for Gael is Philia love. I only love him as a friend." I replied, and she nodded her head."Of course, I understand. I felt so worried about you." She said, and I raised my head as I put down my pen on my table."And why is that?" I asked, and she weakly smiled at me."Nothing, I hope you will open up your heart again. Eight years was long enough, Meg; maybe if you will open up

 Ashton's POVI left Astikoz after my father was discharged from the hospital, and I started working at my father's company. It wasn't my dream at all, but right now, I don't have a choice but to do the right thing. My siblings depended on me so much, and Lennon and Cole didn't want to be the CEO of our company. They all expected me to follow in my dad's footsteps, being the eldest son, and right now, as I was sitting in front of my dad's table, I realized there is no turning back because I am my father's successor. I got busy the entire day attending meetings and reading the monthly reports. It feels so natural now, and I wonder how I will survive in this world that I don't want to be part of, but my father's sudden stroke left me no choice. I know with all the support I receive from my siblings, I will be fine. I stretched my limbs, and when my eyes darted to the clock on the wall, I realized it was almost five in the a

Megan's POV"What the hell happened out there, Megan?" Alice said the moment she got out of her car when she arrived in the driveway of my house, and I could see the frustration on her face. I could tell I had pissed my best friend off because I drove fast and, several times, almost exceeded the maximum speed limit and tried beating the red light while she was trailing behind me. And above all, we arrived home empty-handed. I almost laughed when I realized she drove faster than me because when I left the mall's parking lot, I hadn't seen her car behind me, and I didn't know why she didn't follow me right away since all I wanted was to leave the mall."We went to the mall to buy your son's birthday gift, and here we are, hungry and with nothing. I will buy him the football tomorrow," she added, and I nodded my head as I mumbled my thanks."How could you run off just like that? You are still in love with Ashton, and why did you pretend you don't know him?" she asked, and I released a he
