From Ashes To Heiress Novels & Stories

Why does the solution keep slipping away from my reach? No, I can't fall apart now. I might not know what to do, but there is one thing I know for sure. I am going to prove them all wrong. I am not just a spoiled brat or a helpless girl. I am Ashley Waverly, and I am ready to fight for my father's legacy, no matter what it takes. Just then, a procession of luxury cars arrives, drawing the attention of the shareholders and directors, and whispers start to circulate through the crowd.

Ashley arrogantly caressed her swollen stomach and walked toward me. She muttered, “It is too late for you to be scared. Your son climbed six thousand stone steps on his knees, and his knees were worn down until the bone showed. I will make you suffer even more than he did.” She reached out to grab the gun from Emilio. “Your prop looks very real.” Emilio lifted his hand and pulled the trigger. Bang. A wound appeared on Ashley’s cheek. Her eyes widened in terror as her legs gave out. She fell to the ground and trembled while crawling backward. “It is real. It cannot be. How could she be the heiress of the Darcy family of Jakerville?”

At the café I slide into the corner booth, eyes locked on him before he even sits. “Tell me what you’ve got.” He doesn’t hesitate, placing a brown envelope on the table. “The man you asked me to look into,” Jonas says, “is Lior Ashbourne. Grandson and only heir to the Ashbourne Group. His father is Gregory Ashbourne, chairman. His mother, Venessa… owns Velisse.” Velisse. The name hits me like ice down my spine. The first time I saw Lila at the mall, she wore a Velisse dress — an impossible piece, the kind only someone who belonged could pull off. She looked like she’d stepped out of a different life. A life I cannot forgive.

He said out loud. And then the whisperings started from every angle. “Have you read the news?” “So ungrateful!” “All for being a respected heiress my foot!” No amount of readiness can dismiss Ashley’s emotions at this point. She could already feel her palm getting sweaty and her chest banging loudly against her rib cage. If this is not the perfect moment for a knight in shining armor. “So she really is the infamous Ashley Roland? the promiscuous one!” Another voice spat out in disgust and Ashley’s heart clenched tightly.

And now, she stood unbroken, unstoppable, utterly alive. The ashes of the past had burned completely. From them, a new flame rose of love, strength, and unyielding will. Justina Ashes, with Carson Wills by her side, finally embraced it heart, body, and soul reborn, empowered by love, ready for whatever the world might dare to challenge next. The story had ended. Their journey, their love, their legacy, had only just begun.

My eyes narrowed at her, “Well, excuse me, mother. But I'm not going to partake in this nonsense.” The hardness that I was familiar with slid into her eyes.“This is your chance to prove that you are worthy to be Heiress to the Harrington's legacy. This is your time to uphold our family tradition. For years, we have only married into the upperclassmen, but you made a mistake and eloped with that man from Pleasure Groove. Ashley this is the chance to redeem yourself.” The chandeliers suddenly felt too bright, the fragrance of the white roses became too harsh on my nose, and the entire restaurant turned too loud and rang in my ears. My senses were amplified and my brain overstimulated.

"And what will you do? How are you? I know you are living in luxury all your life. And in an instant everything will disappear. After college, you'll work on a company from the lowest position. Are you ready for that. kind of life? " "I'm ready!" I spat but it sounded more like convincing myself than convincing him. He smirked. I blinked. "Besides, Daddy has other properties. I have my trust fund. I will be supported until college. And yes, I will work on a company. What's wrong in starting from the lowest position? At least I'm earning!" "Then good luck with your plan, heiress." “Not anymore,” I said. "You know what, let's just go to Zach first. I'll bring him some fruit too."

The audio feed from the lobby desk crackled to life through my phone's speaker, bringing the clear, icy tone of her voice straight into the pitch-black quiet of the studio: "Inform Mr. Vance that Sterling Heritage Capital is here for the acquisition board meeting," she said softly, her lips curving into a slow, devastating smile. "Tell him Seraphina Sterling has arrived."

Mia clutched her chest and staggered sadly, "But he is my lover." "Haha... your lover?" Ashley's pale lips did not have a trace of blood, and her eyes were shining desperately, "My love for him is no less than yours. My dear sister, are you willing to exchange your life for his?" "..." Mia's eyes narrowed. ."Sister, don't worry. Yohannes is yours. He is yours from the beginning to the end." Ashley raised her head slightly, looking at the sky with a blurred gaze. Suddenly, a strange light bloomed in her eyes, As if living towards death, the next second, she swung the sword in her hand and wiped it towards her neck, her soft and light body fluttered down like a fallen leaf... "
