Winning My Angry Ex Back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 141 - チャプター 150

Ashley’s POV Nothing on earth prepared me for how today would turn out. It was a Saturday morning, and Saturday mornings had always been my favorite.I had the usual routine that I always followed after waking up, and today was no different. It started off like an ordinary morning.I woke up at the same time I usually woke up every Saturday, drank my coffee, ate breakfast with Janet, and then showered and headed to my gym, which wasn’t far from my office.Aurora had had a sleepover at one of her friends' houses the previous night, and she was going to remain there until later in the evening, when I would pick her up on my way back from work.Since it was a weekend, I wasn’t supposed to work, but today I decided that I would go to the office. I had some paperwork to do, and I wanted to finish it before Monday.So I took clean clothes along with me to the gym, with the intention to take a shower after my workout and wear them before heading to the office. Halfway through my workout, th

Ashley’s POVMy brain found it nearly impossible to process Will’s accusation about Janet. At first, I thought I must have misheard him, but he faced me defiantly and didn’t retract his statement.“I told her about it last week.” He just boldly said. I turned to face Janet in disbelief.Her face was red, not from the crying that she was still doing, but from embarrassment. She averted her gaze immediately and directed her words to Will instead of to me.“Yes, you told me, but you did it in such a casual way that I didn’t believe you!”Will scoffed. “Janet, I showed you proof that I was dating Ashley, but in your own exact words, you said, ‘we’ve already had sex before I knew about it. I don’t think it matters at this point.’”Janet hung her head and cast a guilty look at me. “I’m so sorry, Ashley. I’m so sorry.”“So you knew,” I asked Janet in a hoarse voice.Her lips trembled. “Ashley … I … I …” She trailed off.“You knew?!” I repeated, louder this time around.Janet covered her mout

Ashley’s POVNight came soon enough, but since I spent most of the previous evening and this morning/afternoon sleeping, I found it impossible to sleep tonight.The house was too quiet, so I turned on the television to fill the silence. It didn't matter what was on; I just needed some noise in the eerily silent space.I scrolled through the channels in boredom, looking for something interesting to watch, and eventually landed on one of those late-night gossip channels.Normally, I would have scrolled past such a channel immediately, but today my hand hovered over the button because a familiar face suddenly flashed across the screen.It was Sienna Harrison, Jeff's rumored girlfriend … the international model with whom he went to various events and who had visited him in the office several times.The news anchor was narrating something about a surprising new development regarding the lady.At first, I wasn’t going to listen to what the development was, because I would most likely hear i

Ashley's POVAfter Eliza's departure, the restaurant suddenly felt way too quiet. Jeff didn't say anything at first.Instead, he watched his sister's car disappear through the glass doors, his hand resting loosely on the table."She seems to be a very nice person," I said lightly, reaching for my glass as he turned back to face me."Oh, yes. You're definitely right about that. Eliza is a very nice woman. She takes after our mother," he agreed, and then we fell quiet again.Usually, I didn’t mind silence, but this one felt very oppressive to me, so I racked my brain for something to say, but nothing came.I grabbed my glass of wine and took a huge gulp from it to mask my awkwardness, but unfortunately, the drink went down the wrong windpipe, and to my horror, I found myself having the most embarrassing coughing fit to clear my throat.Jeff leaned forward in concern, encouraging me to cough so I could expel the liquid in my throat. Finally, I sat back, my face flaming and my pulse racin

Ashley’s POVThe kiss deepened even more, making my entire body throb with desire. I didn't come up for air, not even when my lungs began to burn. I would have gladly died like that.My fingers continued to hold on to the front of Jeff's shirt for support without me even realizing it. I could feel the strong and steady beat of his heart beneath my palm.Jeff had always been the one person who could shake me without even trying. In all the time Will and I were together, not once did my body react remotely close to the way it was reacting to Jeff now.Yet we hadn't done much besides kiss. It was crazy and unbelievable to realize that after all this time had passed and despite all the resentment between us, nothing had changed.Jeff's hand tightened on my waist, and I could feel the insistent press of his erection against my stomach, which made my breath catch in my throat. Damn, how I had missed this!I had to give it to Jeff that, despite how aroused he was, he didn't rush me. Instead,
