28- Ashley’s side

Ashley Walters pov:

Shame

Insult

Humiliation

Pain

Everything started attacking me at once. How dare she? What did she think of herself? Why was she doing it?

Thank God, I opened the door on time when she was about to leave, otherwise, she would have killed me if she had read the chat written at the back of the door.

I was not the one who proposed Justin. Her fight was with the Deluca family. I was just a pawn. I was supposed to get my money and leave.

No questions asked.

But would I be able to leave Justin that easily?

That was the question that kept popping up in my mind lately. The cake on that bed was still there.

“Kitten? Ashley?” I jumped a little when I heard Justin calling my name and knocking the door.

I did not reply to Justin. I wanted him to believe that I had gone to sleep.

“I know you are still awake, kitten. I have got your necklace.” My heart missed a beat. Did Sarah give that necklace to Justin?

I thought she was more interested in wearing it. Why would she do that?

Ignoring the knocks at the door I headed to my mattress to take my due sleep. I wanted a clear mind. And right now I did not want to face Justin. Being a gentleman, he would not open the door unless I would allow it.

This was not his mistake. I could not let my frustration out on him.

He did not deserve it when all he did since my arrival was to be nice to me. The knocking had stopped. He must have left by now.

“I would talk to you later, Justin.” I laid on the mattress when I remembered that I had forgotten my phone, which he gifted me, in the study.

Thank God I was not carrying it otherwise Sarah might have taken that too.
