Chapter 26: Chapter 26
The words were big enough to make my life a living tragedy. I don't know why and when I became his fiancee? When did this happen?
I saw his face becoming red in anger, he shut his eyes for a second then rubbed them as he couldn't believe what he heard!
The man who announced this was a middle-aged tall man, he had grey hair and his eyes were almost as Mr Jensen's
Who was he?
And why did he say that I am his son's fiancee?
And where is that girl who was in hand to hand with Mr Blake Jensen when I arrived here?
That girl looked familiar too.
I was on the verge of collapsing thinking everything when the same man tried to step forward, his steps were coming closer to me and my back was just one inch away to get squashed on the wall.
Until Mr Blake decided to step in, he grabbed that man's arm and stormed away to the nearby empty corridor.
Maybe they went to find a place to discuss or spool over whatever they had in their mind. Or maybe this is all just a game, but if this is a game then there is nothing they can get from me!
What they can even get from a poor girl?
A girl who has nothing in her hands just a damaged life, a girl whose own father abandoned her when she was a little child.
Then why me?
I must know all of the answers to my question! I must know everything before this disaster became a huge one.
So, I silently drifted away, without making any noise.
My footsteps were silent, my heart was thumping against my chest and my eyes were most squished at that moment.
"What is the problem blake? Why we are here?"
That man's eyes were furnished with anger, a flame of red was present in them, maybe he despises Mr Blake Jensen at the current moment.
"I'm not going to marry that girl!" His gritted teeth were flaming in anger.
Hey, wait a second is he talking about me?
First of all, I am not at all interested in being his fiancee or better to be married to him in any way, however, he still doesn't have any right to direct me his causing finger as I am nothing just squatting dust to him.
"She is your girlfriend, isn't she?" That man asked with wide-open eyes, there was no hint of weakness in them, only power! He was the man of power he was more powerful than Mr Jensen.
"No, she isn't!" Me Jensen looked away, his eyes went closed, a subtle smile appeared on his face before it become once again a haze of storm!
"Then what was that?" He looked at him from head to toe. Sensing his every moment underneath his keen eyes.
"What was what dad?" He barked, in anger, his jaw was clenched, a fire was in his eyes and his knuckles went white.
"Why did you kiss her? Ahead of everyone? " his dad, of what he told, though there was no compassion between them as father and son, still they had the same eyes,
You know what? I wanted to ask the same question by myself too!
How dare he to stole my first kiss!
How dare he to touch me!
I know it will mean nothing to him as he must have dated so many girls in the past, but for me? I wanted it to be special! I wanted it to be with someone with whom I will share my whole life, but he stole that right from me! He stole my first kiss and I will never forgive him for that!
"I had to kiss her, " he grumped while staring at the empty wall until it melts into dust again.
"You know Blake I had invited paparazzi so that I could declare your engagement, and I have especially told them that the most popular billionaire of this country is going to get hitched soon!" It comes more like order in sounding.
"So what dad? You should have asked me!"
If they were not father and son they would be two quarrelling birds ready to kill each other.
There was nothing like a family to them. As they are strangers,
"Enough! Blake, I am not going to tolerate it, we have a reputation, you cannot just randomly kiss a girl ahead of the paparazzi and act as she is nothing for you! You have created damage, now do as I say, I want you on the cover page of every magazine with that girl! Is that clear!"
"But?"
"But what? That girl looks fine to me, is she a model or an actress? If she is one then it would be very beneficial for us!"
"She is a no one dad! She works in my company as a secretary!"
That hurts! That hurt like a hell! Of course, I know I am no one to this world, I am not one with the money, still hearing from his mouth creating another disaster for me.
A tear rolled down on my cheek, it doesn't matter how much I try to work, how much I try to stand tall despite being surrounded by thorns, the only thing that will and always matter is I am a nobody! A nothing to him!
"Are you out of your mind? you kissed your secretary? Do you know what this means?"
No, I don't know what this means! Still, I wasn't able to say anything, words were crushed in my throat.
What is he going to do now? Whenever I believe that everything is fine in my life, everything gets collapsed again as it's all a dream, a fragile dream to me.
"You know what Blake? I am not going to listen to any rant of yours! Today is your day and I want fully focus on you, so do break up with that girl next month, until you have to pursue her!"
With his father walked out from the room, leaving my mouth hanging open! Such a devil he is! He wants his son to play with me?
However, he forgot that we still live in a country where everyone has equal rights at least according to the law. And I, Ashley Brooke, isn't going to let him play with me.
