Ashton saw the car that was pack in front of the house from the window. He watched Elizabeth get off of the car. She had on a dress that flowed with a jacket she simply placed on her shoulders without having to wear it. She had on a pair of dark sun shades and she wore shiny red heels. Ashton could see that her hair was well groomed and let down behind her back. He continued to watch her from the window in his office that overlooked the park.
He wondered why she was here? Did she come to speak with Thomas or to him? Or was she here for the both of them?....
He saw her disappear through the entrance underneath and just then, Thomas joined him at the window.
"What 'you peaking at from up here?" Thomas asked him and he turned to Thomas.
"I think we've got a visitor." Ashton told him. Thomas took a sip from the cup of coffee he had in his hand.
"Business visitors?" He asked and Ashton let out a sigh.
"You'll see." H
Rebecca didn't quite understand why she was fond of and found herself comfortable in the presence of Myles' friends. She simply couldn't grasp the reason why she was getting comfortable with Myles' friends inviting her over to their hangouts.Today they were sitting out at a park and having a mini picnic party. Everyone who was invited to the hang out were asked to get something for the group, something somewhat fancy and compulsoryly eatable.She found herself holding a basket containing all kinds of fruits as she got off from her car and eyed the people who were sitted on spread blankets on the soft grass. She had the thought of changing her mind and going back but she shook her head. She wasn't doing this because she wanted to do it after all. She was only doing it gain connection with them. Especially with Elizabeth Cooper. Who knew, if she became close friends with the daughter of Theophilus Cooper she was bound to get him to favor her as well as wipe
Rebecca thanked the police officer who had called her to inform about Theron's arrest."Thank you so much sheriff," she said to him. "I really appreciate your call. "She said to him."Anytime Ms Knowles." The sheriff said and she nodded. He then turned his attention to the junior officer who was standing beside him and spoke. "Go get Mr Knowles. " He commanded and the junior officer saluted and left.Rebecca stood there impatiently as she waited. She hated that she had to do this. Her brother just had to get into a fight. Was he insane? What was wrong with him? Wasn't he aware of his social status? Getting into a fight in public was he insane? He knew very well that he was a major stake holder in Knowles Corps!Soon and Theron was led out of the station still cuffed. Luckily he wasn't beaten and so he had no bruises on him.Rebecca eyed him wearily as she watched the junior sheriff take off the cuffs from his wrists. Theron rubbed
Rebecca and Myles got off the car as they walked into the hotel. They walked beside each other, not uttering a word to one another. Rebecca could see from the sides of her eyes that she was catching the eyes of onlookers. She saw how the men watched her walk by, they probably weren't used to seeing a woman be that confident and daring. She could recognize the look of awe on their faces. She could also see the sinister look of envy and jealousy on the faces of the women as well. Apart from her, every other woman in that club were dressed in skimpy and barely there dresses. They were half naked and lacked her kind of confidence. She could tell that they all wished in their hearts to be like her. She tried to hide a smile as she walked passed them.They both walked briskly as they approached the huge able bodied body guard that stood at the entrance of the vip spot. Myles halted in his steps and that made Rebecca to halt too."Wait here for a moment." He turne
Ashton walked out of the cafeteria, he had a cup of coffee in his hand as he casually strolled along the road, he was deep in thought. He walked slowly and almost got hit by a moving vehicle when he strayed away from the pedestrian walk way. He heard the way the driver cursed at him but he didn't look at him. He wasn't even ready for that drama so early in the morning. From the looks of things it was already well over 9am and he could tell it was a busy morning. He could see the busy office goers as they rushed to their respective offices no doubt.He watched most of them that trekked walk briskly while the ones that drove, drove carelessly just like the asshole who almost hit him moments ago.He felt his phone ring in his pockets and he pulled it out and answered the call when he saw who it was that was displayed on the screen."I'm guessing you must have seen my video." Thomas Gomez spoke from the speaker a soon as Ashton answered the phone.<
Ashton ignored the look Thomas was shooting his way when he said his last words. Mr Cooper regarded him for a moment before he nodded his head and spoke with a smile suddenly appearing on his face."Of course," he spoke smiling at Ashton. He then motioned for one of his security men to go to him and he whispered something into his ears. Ashton saw the security guy nod his head and leave immediately. Then Mr Cooper turned to look at Ashton again."He has to go make sure that Elizabeth is presentable." He explained and Ashton nodded his head. Mr Cooper then proceeded to look away and continue with his cigar while Thomas tried to gain Ashton's attention."What are you doing?" Thomas asked him but he ignored him. Thomas had no idea of what Ashton was capable of. He knew nothing about what Ashton was capable of doing. Ashton never announced his capabilities to just anyone. Even his ex wife whom he had known for quite some time knew nothing about the
"You think so?" Rebecca asked Myles. He nodded his head as if she could see him. He was walking towards her office."I am one hundred percent positive." He said in response, figuring that she didn't hear him after all."Are you kidding me Myles Jameson?" She asked him. She was finding it difficult to believe him. This was as a result of their, you know, previous encounter with the Coopers."I am right at your door so let me in." She heard Myles say instead and she looked up to see through her glasses doors that he wasn't kidding."Come on in." She said. Letting him in. Myles Jameson came into the office and ended the call. He had on a smile on his face. He looked like this plan was going to work."Have a seat ." She offered to him as she dropped her phone. "I shouldn't be letting you come visit me anymore but I simply cannot help it." She told him. He laughed at that."That is understandable." He responded
Angel looked at Elizabeth. She could see that Elizabeth was quite younger than Ashton but no doubt as kind as he was. Something told her that she could trust this woman. She noticed the seemingly expensive outfit the woman wore and the way it fitted her form so perfectly. She wished she could have the same type of body as this lady. She could see that the lady was well to do, what with the expensive clothes she wore along with the expensive shoes and bags she had with her. There was no doubt that she was going to be safe in her hands. She regarded Elizabeth for a moment before she turned her attention to Ashton."What happened to the foster home?" She asked Ashton knowing it was rude to ask him that question in front of Elizabeth but she did anyway. She never said she was a saint.Ashton shifted uncomfortably under her gaze. He noticed that Elizabeth had looked to him as well. He cleared his throat as he spoke."Miss Cooper will take care of yo
"The ashwagandha plant." Ashton muttered the moment he opened his eyes. He hadn't realized until now that he had been sleeping all these while. He could not even fully comprehend the dream he just had.What was this dream about and what was this ashwagandha plant he was dreaming about? He wondered as he looked around him. Was it some sort of folklore or something? He asked himself as he sat up from his bed.What was this dream about? He quickly got up from his bed as he went over to his laptop computer and booted on the system. After which he typed in the name he had muttered out loud right from the moment he had woken from sleep.On the screen of his laptop computer, the time was four fifteen a.m and he knew that this was supposed to be the time many other people would get up and prepare for their day's activities.Ashton hastily typed in the word; ashwagandha plant into the system and waited for the computer to fetch the informat
