The Inevitable Rise Of Miles Greyson 39
Chapter 39Miles walked over to her door, and just when he was about to knock on the door, he paused as he heard her voice from inside."I'm still trying, doctor... I'm trying to raise the money. Please don't let my mom die. She is the only one I have left," Miles's eyebrows knitted together, confused about what was happening. "What's wrong with her Mom?" He mumbled."I will raise the money. Just give me some more time, please," Her teary voice sounded from inside the room again.Miles reached for the doorknob of her door, but stopped and changed his mind."Maybe I should talk to her tomorrow," He concluded and walked away.Miles slumped on his bed tiredly as soon as he walked inside his room. Many thoughts ran through his mind, and he couldn't help but ask himself what was wrong with Ashley."I'll find out about it tomorrow," With that in mind, he stood up from the bed, stripped out of his dress, and walked inside his bathroom with only his shorts on.Miles stood under the shower, n

Chapter 40Miles alighted from the car along with Ashley as soon as the cab they boarded pulled over in front of the hospital."You have not paid, Mr," The cabby called Miles's attention when he turned to leave, and Miles walked back to him."I'm sorry," Miles apologized as he took out a hundred-dollar note and gave it to the cabby. He turned immediately and hurried away even as the cabby was calling his attention to come back for his change.Ashley had already walked into the hospital, so Miles walked in also and spotted her walking toward the elevator. He hurried after her and they took the elevator to the third floor where Ashley's Mom was admitted.Ashley hurried out of the elevator as soon as the elevator rolled open on the third floor, and Miles did the same.Ashley's heart pounded hard against her chest as she walked briskly down the walkway with fear written all over her, while Miles trailed behind her. She finally pushed the door to one of the wards open and barged inside. "

Chapter 41"I have something to attend to. I will come check up on you later," Miles said to Ashley before he left the hospital to go meet up with Mr. Ace who had called him yesterday that they should meet later.His phone started to ring as he stood at the side of the road minutes later while waiting for a cab, and he checked to see that it was Mr. Ace's assistant, Bryant. He quickly swiped the answer button and held the phone to his ear."Sir, the surgeon has been contacted and he'll be available in a few hours. I have filed a lawsuit against Doctor Henry for sexual harassment and his hospital will be closed down in three days," The corner of Miles's lips twitched into a smirk as he stared into space."Do you need me to do anything else, Sir?" Came the masculine voice again."I want Mrs Carter to be transferred from the hospital immediately," Miles said on the phone."Yes, Boss. She will be taken away from the hospital as soon as the surgeon arrives," Came the masculine voice."Good

Chapter 42Tears streamed down Ashley's cheeks as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her heart wrenched painfully and she could only wish she had other means to save her Mom and not open her legs for that doctor, but what could she possibly do?"Don't cry, Ashley. You need to do everything to save your Mom. You can't give up on her," She said to herself as she took a deep breath and closed her eyes, trying to see the positive side of this no matter how difficult it seemed to be.She lazily reached for her phone and unlocked it. The address Doctor Henry had sent to her earlier was still displayed on the screen. It was in a hotel."Don't let it bother you, Ashley. You just need to be obedient, and your Mom will be fine. As long as she'll be fine, anything is worth sacrificing to save her," She whispered as she wiped her tears. After a little touch on her make-up, she finally left her room.She paused when she got into the living room and found Miles seated on the chair."You ar

Chapter 43Sonia Frost POVI had no idea if I should be happy after a successful live video or if I should be sad. Putting on a smile every day while hurting inside is really draining, but what could I do? My life wasn't a bed of roses, so I should embrace it as it comes, right?I picked up my phone and unlocked it as I sat in front of the mirror. My heart bled and throbbed with pain as I stared at my picture with Lewis. If that didn't happen, we were supposed to be married by now. We would've been living a happy life by now if that horrible incident didn't come up, and as much as I was sad about the disappointment, I was also grateful that it didn't happen after we got married. I would've been stuck with him forever, and who knows, maybe I would've died before my appointed time.The sound of my ringing phone caught my attention, and I rolled my eyes when I checked the caller and found that it was my Dad."Come over to the mansion and let's have dinner tonight. Come with your fiance,"

Chapter 44Miles glanced at Sonia for the umpteenth time on their way. He barely knew anything about this lady, yet he was attracted to her everything. She had caught his attention at first sight and fuck! He was starting to like her."Don't think about it, Miles. You are just into an arranged marriage," He reminded himself as he looked out through the window. Miles couldn't deny seeing the disturbance and curiosity on her face when he looked at her again, and he wondered what was wrong with her. Did something happen? Did she get bullied? He tried to refrain himself from asking her questions since they were not close."Just ask her as the gentleman you are," He told himself, then breathed in and out."Are you ok? You don't look fine," Sonia glanced at him and nodded blankly."Hmm," she hummed, and he nodded.After a long ride, they finally arrived at a beautiful mansion, and Sonia drove inside.Sonia was stunned when she stepped out of the car and saw many cars parked in the parking

Chapter 45"Why don't you stop with the pretense, Dad? We both know that you don't care about me," Sonia scoffed as she stood up from the couch, and Miles did too. "You! How could you be rude to Dad in the presence of a stranger?" Harley stepped forward and snapped at Sonia."Dad...""Your sister is just under the weather. You shouldn't be like that to her," Mr. Frost, their Dad forced a smile."You called me here to attend Harley's birthday dinner party..." She huffed as she crossed her arms on her chest and rolled her eyes."What game are you trying to play this time, Dad?""Sonia... I only called you here so we can get to know your fiance. Besides, it's family time together, so I was thinking you shouldn't be left out. Don't you think?" Seeing the smile on the man's face made Sonia's skin crawl with disgust. She tried to fight back her tears even though it was difficult to. Her heart was breaking into a million shreds. It's fine that he didn't like her and not that he was complain

Chapter 46"What are you talking about?" Mr. Frost hesitated for a few minutes before he finally asked.Over the years, Sonia had been pretending not to know everything that happened years ago. How her Dad had been spending the money that her Mom worked hard for.Mr. Frost was just a delivery guy who found favor in the eyes of the billionaire heiress, Claudia Ramos. They dated for a few months before they got married, and Frost automatically inherited her wealth because of the love Claudia had for him. A few years after the death of Sonia's Mom, her Mom's assistant had reached out to her from where he was hiding and told her about everything that happened but the death of her Mom remained mysterious. For years, she had been deprived of her mom's wealth, she was fine with it, but now she couldn't fold her arms and watch her Dad give it to his other daughter. That was the last thing she'd ever allow."We both know what I'm talking about, Dad... Do you think I will fold my arms and watc

Miles stepped out of the car that had just driven into the big compound of the mansion standing in front of him. The house was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, and he was even awed by the number of cars parked in the garage. Even though he wanted to take his time to admire the place and check out what it looked like, he wasn't so settled to do that."This way, please," Bryant gestured toward the entrance door and started walking toward it immediately, so Ethan followed him, counting his steps nervously. His jaw dropped when he walked into the living room which looked like another planet on its own, but he was soon distracted by the number of men in black suits queued in the living room. Something he was just noticing."Welcome home, master," Again, they all stood up and bowed to him just like how those people did back at the prison."Wait here while I go call our boss," Bryant uttered and was about to walk away when a deep baritone voice sounded along the stairs."I've been

Miles sat on the cold floor, gazing into space as he shivered from the cold piercing through his bones. His body felt stiffened, but he knew he had to hang in there. He needed to. He couldn't just give up at this point in his life.'You are not the father of my child' Those words have been living rent-free in his head for the past two days since he has been here, wishing that it was a dream. He wished someone would tap him to wake up and maybe tell him that it was all a nightmare. 'How did I get here? How did everything suddenly go wrong? Why did she do it?' he asked himself as he hugged his knees to his chest, but his only crime was being poor. His only crime was not being able to afford the luxurious life she wanted, but he did his best. Until two days ago, he had done everything in his power to give her all the happiness she wanted. He tried to provide for her with the little he had, and all he wanted was to have a happy life together as one big family with the kids they would hav

Chapter 51"Why am I getting dressed?" Sonia paused and asked herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. It's not that she was going to see him for the first time. She didn't even get this excited the first time she was going to meet him, so what was this about?"Ugh! Forget it," She rolled her eyes and continued what she was doing, regardless.Sonia was soon getting dressed, so she left her room. She was impressed when she walked inside the living room and the sweet aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed her."I trust your cooking so well... The aroma is everything," She closed her eyes and breathed in after she walked inside the dining room where she met Amelie setting the table."Whatever! The food is all ready now," Amelie announced as if she didn't see that the table was already set."But wait... Why are you all dressed up, girl?" Amelie was forced to ask after she scanned her with her eyes."I just got married, so I should look good," Was the only excuse she gave Ame

Chapter 50"Are you kidding me? You really got married to that dude?" Amelie, Sonia's best friend shrieked as she held the certificate in her hand with her eyes narrowed in shock."Are you out of your mind, Sonia? I mean, how can you get married to that dude? He looked like a student and he is not even...""Can you quit ranting, Amelie? You are going to make me sick if you keep being like this. Ugh! I feel like passing out," Sonia whined as she rubbed her fingers gently on her forehead while closing her eyes."It just doesn't make any sense to me, Sonia. You need to think about this again. You can't be married to that dude," Amelie insisted, and she sighed."What is there to think about again, Amelie? We are already married," Sonia just shrugged and rolled her eyes."It's not something to worry about, Amelie. I will handle things, ok? We are just married because of..." Sonia paused and briefly sighed. She didn't want to tell not even her best friend that her marriage was just an arrang

Chapter 49Miles stepped out of the car that had just pulled over in front of the city hall. It was the day he was supposed to get married to Sonia and also inherit the fortune. All he needed was just to get the marriage certificate and sign the contract with Mr. Ace later in the day, and everything would finally become his.The sound of his ringing phone pulled his attention as he walked toward the entrance door, and when he saw that it was Sonia, he quickly swiped the answer button."Hey!""Hey, Miles... I'm sorry, something came up here and I'll be delayed a bit. Can you wait for me, please?" Her innocent voice sounded from the other end."Sure, I will," At that moment although Miles knew that this marriage was just an arranged one, still, he didn't want anything else more than to get married to Sonia. She was everything he ever wanted in a woman.The call ended and he sighed. Miles walked over to sit at the corner of the city hall, waiting for his soon-to-be wife while imagining wh

Chapter 48Sonia glanced at Miles for the umpteenth time on their way home and she couldn't help but feel grateful for coming to her rescue. Maybe those bad guys would've harmed her if he had not shown up."Thank you," She muttered as she glanced at him, and he hummed as he nodded. Since she was still shocked by what happened earlier, Miles decided to drive her instead after he helped her fix the car.The ride to Sonia's apartment didn't take much time before they arrived, and Miles stepped out of the car after she did."You should sleep early. I'll be busy tomorrow so we might not get to see each other," Miles handed her the car keys, but she glanced at her wristwatch and turned her attention back to him."It's late. Why don't you sleep over? I have two rooms. You can make use of one of them...""Don't worry about...""Your house is still far from here and it's going to be difficult to get a cab at this time of the night. So, I insist," She insisted and he was eventually left with no

Chapter 47"Thanks for earlier," Sonia muttered as she glanced over to Miles on their way home."Hmm," Miles just nodded and looked out through the window. He had a lot of things to ask her which were not limited to her family, but they were not legally married yet, so he didn't have any right to ask her. At least not just yet."Why don't we go to the city hall for the marriage certificate next tomorrow? I have time then and I think it'll be perfect," Sonia suggested, getting Miles's attention."Hmm... That's fine," He nodded and she forced a smile.Sonia pulled over in front of Miles's dorm minutes later, and he removed the seatbelt from his body."See you around," Miles was going to open the door when she spoke up."Why don't you come over to my house tomorrow? I think you should know my house since we'll be getting married soon," Sonia suggested and he thought about it for a few seconds before he nodded."That's fine,""I will send you my address," He nodded and finally stepped out
