Elizabeth let out an angry sigh as the last of them exited the room. She still couldn't believe they had shown such reactions to Ashton.
After a few seconds, she realizes that her arms were still wrapped around Ashton's meaning he was still in the room with her.
"I am so sorry, I didn't expect them to react like that, especially Mr Greene." She immediately apologized with her gaze fixed on him.
Ashton flashed her a weak smile. "It's alright, I expected him to beat me up even, he was holding back."
"How did you know he was going to react like that when none of us had sensed it coming? Are you psychic too?" She asked jokingly.
Her words brought a slight smirk to Ashton's face. "As a man in the medical lane, he will feel really insulted by my words because of our age comparison. No matter how hard I tried to sound respectful, I was still insulting his knowledge and pride."
"I see... But still he shouldn't have hit you! W
Myles moved closer to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Rebecca, you need to see it that that Pearce kid is a very bad person! Just because you were married to him for three years doesn't mean you really know a person!"Rebecca felt uncomfortable from his touch but his words brought a sigh from her mouth."Mr Knowles," Myles moved his attention to Theron. "I promise you that I will avenge you, I will deal with that stubborn forest creature and teach him the manners he needs to learn."Theron beamed at Myles. "Mr Jameson, how can my family thank you enough? You have always been there for us, you'll be a better brother in law to me than that useless trash bag!"Myles smiled appreciatively. He asked to see Rebecca in private and she got up to follow him."We'll be outside for a moment." She said to her mother and brother before leaving the room with Myles.Myles stood a few feet away from the door and she wen
People stared in disbelief as a young woman wailed in distress for someone to save her while trying to free herself from the man's strong grip but none of them felt strong enough to go against him.Ashton turned around as he heard her voice and it was at that moment he realized what was going on. He was about to set his drugs aside and fight for her when someone else came flying in and knocking the man off his feet.Rebecca fell to the ground from the impact as well and Diana came running towards her.Ashton realized the man to be Myles and he stepped back."What happened to you Rebecca? Did he do anything bad to you? Did he hit you?" Diana questioned worriedly.Rebecca fidgeted on the ground from the fear of being dragged away while her mother questioned her. "I don't know him! He just came in and started telling me his boss would like to see me and other nonsense too!"Diana helped her daughter back to her feet and
She cleared her throat without uttering a word. She just stood there and watched Ashton place his order. It came to her that she should try to continue their conversation in a calm manner.A question would never hurt. "Who are those drugs for?" She folded her arms behind her back as she asked."Someone." He responded plainly.A sigh escaped her mouth at his reply. There was no way to avoid the problem she had just stirred other than an apology. Another sigh left her mouth before she began talking."Listen, I am so sorry for my outburst, I just didn't understand why you would do such a thing but now I get it. My brother is a big jerk for trying to hurt you and I promise you that I'll never ever let him do something like that again.""No need to apologize, I understand what it feels like to want to protect someone you love." His eyes lingered on her for a moment as the words left his mouth.She felt her whole pers
Ashton's steps came to a halt as he stood a few feet away from the car that the razz man had run to. A young man stepped out of the car with dark shades shielding his eyes from the sun. He slammed the door behind him and the razz man seemed totally composed in front of him.No translator was needed to tell Ashton that that was the boss the razz man was talking about. He was dressed in a black suit with white linings decoration on it. A red necktie peeked out of the top of his neatly buttoned shirt. His shoe was a black that shone so brightly like the car he had stepped down from. The man had Viking colored hair with brown stubble beards. His eyes were a light blue as Ashton took a proper look at him and his pink lips pouted disappointedly as he stared at the jazz man. "Rio! Where is Rebecca?" The boss questioned as he shot the razz man with a deadly scowl. "Boss, it really wasn't my fault!" Rio explained while holding on to his aching stomach. "I went in there to grab her for yo
Myles had managed to get into her head with his words of deceit and Rebecca had hoped she could bring herself to not believe it but easier said than done. Myles held her hand in his gently yet firmly. "Listen to me, I know it is kind of difficult for you to process things right now but I think I know what you need right now..." His voice was a calming tone that could bring a sheepish smile to a woman's face if it were a normal occasion. She looked up at him with an inquisitive expression on her face. Her face flushed red as her eyes widened with so much surprise, the last thing she had expected was happening right in front of her.A silver piece of jewelry shimmered in front of her eyes and the diamonds used to bring it to life reflected through her eyes with a beautiful glint. He had removed a small black box from his pocket and when he opened it, a diamond ring sat inside it. A gasp left her mouth. "Myles! What are you...?""Rebecca... Ms. Knowles... All you need right now is so
The whole hospital room was upside down. Nothing could be done by drowsy Theron who laid on the bed, half awoken from all the noise and half sleepy from his pain relief pills. Rebecca was too weak a person to take on a thug by herself and Myles was frightened to death by the name he had heard from the man. There was only one Brynn in the whole of Beaumont city courageous enough to go around causing trouble and taking whatever woman he desired without being questioned by the law and it was Matson Brynn, also known as the god of all thugs. Myles swallowed hard, he told himself he had heard wrong as the Brynn family's son was away from the city and his arrival had not been made known yet so he was probably just a thug with the same name. If he wasn't a random thug then he would introduce himself by telling them who his father was firstly just to incite fear in them."Mr Jameson, please help us!" Diana yelled out as she struggled to free herself from Jason's strong grip. Diana's word
Diana felt like her insides had turned to the outside. How dare he be such a coward? It was understanding when Ashton did it, he probably hated her daughter and cared less if she was looted away but him?!!Myles was supposed to marry his daughter but yet he cowered away now. "Mr Jameson! What are you saying?!" Her eyes bulged out like he was about to pop out of her eye sockets. Myles just remained quiet where he laid while Jason roared a mocking laugh. How was he to still speak up about Rebecca and that she was about to become his bride? With such a situation, he had to choose between saving himself or her. He wasn't daft enough to choose someone else's life over his own dear life no matter who the person was. His determination to remain there without moving a muscle was very strong as he lay still on the ground no matter how many times Diana chose to call out his name to fight. "So, Mr Jameson... Do you mind if I take her with me? Do you feel the need to stop me if I do so?" Ja
Jason roared a laugh. "You had your chance, prince charming." He turned towards Rio. "Bring her over here and teach this young hero a lesson. After this class, you'll never save anyone ever again." Rio did as his boss commanded, carefully placing Rebecca down next to Jason who kept a firm grip over her wrist while she struggled to escape. "Ashton! Don't be foolish! Run now! They'll kill you!" Rebecca hollered hoping he would at least listen to her and leave. "Last chance hero." Jason added. "Sorry but I don't take orders from anyone." Ashton responded. Jason smirked. "This is going to be interesting. The last one didn't try to fight back so it was just too boring. Break his bones boys." With his order, Jason's thugs rushed forward for Ashton, all of them attacking almost at the same time. As the men reached forward to strike Ashton, each of them found themselves on the ground, lying in a pile against each other. All Ashton needed to do was to target a sensitive part of
