Ashley’s POV

CHAPTER 1“I told you already, Ash. The company’s going through a lot of financial crisis. Where exactly do you expect me to get money to afford those medications you’re requesting for?”Alvin’s voice carried a faint edge of irritation. It wasn’t loud, but it was there. Sharp enough for me to notice.It had been there a lot lately ever since that morning. Ever since the that shattered my life into something I could barely recognize happened three weeks ago.I swallowed hard, my fingers tightening unconsciously around the cold metal rims of my wheelchair. The slight creak it made sounded too loud in the tense silence of the room as I turned myself slowly to face him properly.The familiar pain in my lower body flared again with the movement, sharp and cruel, like something gnawing deep beneath my skin. It was the same pain I needed those medications for.My breath hitched, but I bit it back, forcing my hands to stay steady as I adjusted my position.Maybe if he looked at me.Maybe if h

Ashley’s POV

CHAPTER 2 It's been an hour now since the rain stopped falling, and just like some miracle, the pain in my lower body had stopped with it, but not the one in my heart.I was still sitting in front of the television even though it's been an hour since the news about Alvin hit.Though the news had ended long ago and some random show was playing now, voices rising and falling, people laughing at things I couldn't even hear, but hell, I couldn't move from that spot.I just stared blankly at the screen like somehow it could answer the question swirling in my head.Why?My fingers twitched slowly on the armrest of my wheelchair, nails pressing into the worn leather as I wondered.Why would Alvin do something so cruel to me?Why would he lie... deliberately ignore my pain just to please his best friend?Was I really that meaningless to him now?My chest rose slowly, then fell with every thought like something heavy was sitting on it.Though I knew he was acting out of it recently, but this.

Ashley’s POV

CHAPTER 3It had been over an hour now. Over an hour since the doctors finished attending to me, assuring me I was fine, and also since I woke up only to be hit again with that devastating memory. The truth about everything I thought I knew.The tears hadn’t stopped falling ever since then. Even now as I lie weakly against the stiff hospital bed, they keep slipping down my temples, soaking into the pillow beneath my head.The air in the room was thick with the smell of antiseptic and something metallic.From somewhere in the room I could hear the rhythmic beeping of the monitor, slow and steady, almost like it was mocking the chaos inside my chest.My fingers twitched against the thin hospital sheet, gripping it weakly as if it might ground me.Alvin.The same Alvin I loved and trusted with everything in me... To think he had tried to kill me.A shaky breath left my lips almost immediately, breaking halfway through.It still sounded insane even till this very moment, and hell, if anyo

Dominic POV

CHAPTER 4'Dom, where the hell are you?''The meeting’s about to begin now, Dom. We need you to make an appearance. Please don’t keep the investors waiting.'That was it. The messages wouldn’t stop pouring into my phone, one after the other, the screen lighting up, buzzing against my palm every now and then, but still… it didn’t make me move an inch.I was still in the hospital.Still sitting there after bringing the woman in on a wheelchair. The same woman I had almost hit with my car on my way to that goddamn meeting.And it's been over an hour since then. Over an hour since the doctors attended to her and told me she would be fine.And of course, I should have been long gone.I had a meeting to attend a really important one. The same meeting I had been speeding to before everything went wrong and I almost hit her with my car. But then here I was waiting.Hell, I didn’t even understand it myself.I wasn’t the kind of man who cared about anyone. Women especially. I never stayed, neve

CHAPTER 5Ashley POVThe moment the door clicked shut behind the strange man, the room fell silent the silence so loud and deafening.I let out a shaky breath I didn’t even realize I had been holding, my fingers tightening around my hospital gown as I stared around.Hell, everything still hurt not physically. No. it wasn’t the kind of pain that came with bruises or blood, but the kind that came from betrayal from the kind of truth you wished you could unlearn.Alvin…My fingers curled tighter into the gown, nails digging into my lap as his name echoed in my head like a curse I couldn’t escape, just as the words from Bethel hit me again.'Ma Ashley, your company has been handed to Sir Alvin, and you can’t get it back again unless he signs it over himself.'Of course, Alvin had done it yet again. He had taken everything. As if trying to kill me wasn’t enough, he had stolen my company my hard work as well as my life.A broken laugh slipped past my lips, dry and hollow at the thought.To

Ashley’s POV( A door left open)

The wheels of my chair rolled slowly across the polished hospital floor. Don’t stop. The words repeated themselves over and over inside my head. Don’t think. Just move. The hallway stretched endlessly before me, almost too quiet for a place this large. The fluorescent lights above hummed softly, their white glow reflecting against the spotless tiles beneath my wheelchair. Every sound made me flinch. The distant ringing of a telephone. The squeak of a nurse’s shoes. The soft beeping of medical equipment from behind closed doors. It all felt louder than it should. As though the hospital itself knew I was trying to escape. I tightened my grip on the wheels and kept moving. My arms already ached. The doctors had insisted I spend another week recovering after the accident, which meant I hadn’t been using the wheelchair much on my own. Pushing myself now was harder than I remembered. But pain didn’t matter. Not anymore. I had survived my husband’s betrayal. I had signed the

Ashley’s POV( A stranger Beside Me)

CHAPTER 7 The rain continued to fall long after we left the hospital. Tiny droplets slid lazily down the car window, blurring the city outside until everything became nothing more than moving lights and faded shadows. I rested my forehead lightly against the cool glass. Neither of us spoke. The silence inside the car wasn’t uncomfortable. It was… unfamiliar. After everything that had happened in the past few weeks, I had almost forgotten what silence without shouting sounded like. No accusations. No insults. No one asking me to explain myself. Just… Silence. I slowly glanced toward the driver’s seat. Dominic kept both hands on the steering wheel, his attention fixed on the road ahead. He hadn’t looked at me once since we left the hospital. Strange. Most men would have tried to start a conversation by now. Or asked questions. Where are you going? What happened? Why were you in the hospital? He hadn’t asked a single one. It should have made me feel relieved. Inste

Ashley’s POV( No safe place)

CHAPTER 8 The shopping plaza was brighter than I expected. Warm lights spilled from every storefront, reflecting off the rain-soaked pavement. Families hurried past with shopping bags tucked beneath their arms while children laughed as they splashed through tiny puddles. It looked… Normal. Painfully normal. The kind of evening I used to have before my life fell apart. Dominic parked near the entrance and switched off the engine. For a moment, neither of us moved. I stared through the windshield at the crowd outside. “So…” I said quietly. “This is your plan?” He unfastened his seatbelt. “For now.” I frowned. “You don’t sound very confident.” “It’s not confidence.” He turned to look at me for the first time since we’d entered the plaza. “It’s caution.” His expression remained calm, but there was something alert behind his eyes. “They’ve followed us this far. If they’re really watching us, they’ll have to blend into a crowd.” I glanced toward the rearview mirror. The

Ashley’s POV

Chapter 9 The rain had stopped. Yet the air around us felt colder than ever. I couldn’t move. Not because of the wheelchair. But because of the name I had just heard. Dominic Walker. The leader of the armed men smiled as though he had finally completed a difficult assignment. “So,” he said, slipping one hand into the pocket of his coat, “the rumors were true after all.” Dominic didn’t respond. He simply stood in front of me, one hand resting casually inside the pocket of his trousers. His posture looked relaxed. Too relaxed. Almost bored. The men surrounding us hesitated. I noticed it immediately. There were at least twelve of them. Each one was broad-shouldered, dressed in black tactical clothing, and clearly trained. Yet… None of them took another step. Why? The leader’s smile slowly faded. “You’ve got nothing to say, Mr. Walker?” Dominic finally looked at him. His expression remained unreadable. “I was trying to remember where I’ve seen you before.” The man

Ashley’s POV( A place I didn’t belong)

CHAPTER 10 The sound of the gunshot still echoed in my ears. For a few terrifying seconds… I couldn’t hear anything else. Not the shouting. Not the footsteps. Not even my own breathing. Everything around me became a blur. My hands gripped the armrests of my wheelchair so tightly that my fingers began to ache. I’m alive. The realization came slowly. Painfully. Alive. I blinked. The world gradually came back into focus. Rainwater glistened across the parking lot. Several men dressed in black had already surrounded the gunman, forcing him to his knees before he could raise his weapon again. “Drop it!” The pistol clattered onto the wet pavement. Another man kicked it out of reach. The entire confrontation had ended almost as quickly as it began. I looked toward Dominic. He stood a few feet in front of me, breathing steadily. His white shirt, hidden beneath his dark coat, was stained near the sleeve. Blood. My heart skipped. “You…” The word barely escaped my lips.
