Chapter 84: Chapter 84

John Stewart wasn't the man whom I was thinking he would be.

His father never gave his name to him and Stewart is his mother's last name. His mother was a secretary who was accepting income from the owner of Jensen's Industries.

He had the only mission in his eyes to snatch the whole empire from the only son of the owner, the one and only Blake Jensen.

On the first day when he embarked on his presence in Jensen industries, Blake didn't know who he was, nor anyone from the office premises knows what he was doing and who he was as he came under the disguise to monitor the workings.

He kept his keen eyes on everything related to him to conclude that he has a very sophisticated image in the media and to ruin him he simply has to crush his image along with Jensen's industries.

He planned the explosion in London because there was no way left for him to defeat him in business and to get the things done he crossed his limits. He planned the most harmful thing for his half brother just for the sake of power.

And when Bake went to MIA, the press made it very easy for him to shine bright in the sky. A self-made businessman is respectful to women and his words while the most popular billionaire doesn't give a shot to anybody.

And even that was not enough to reconsider everything he finds out blame Jensen is alive and planning to return to the county. He had the media's attention in his absence, the shares were down of Jensen industries, what he didn't have was the girl whom Blake Jensen has promised something ahead of the whole world.

Now, the media thinks that Blake Jensen is a moron who used the poor girl just to clean his image or to get sympathy when the girl was hiding behind the walls for the past month and John Stewart knows that Blake Jensen has a connection with me. He wants it clear in the media that he is a pure-hearted guy who will help even those who were bashed by billionaires in past.

Stewart knows that Blake Jensen doesn't like to share even his employees and I am his so-called fiancee.

He knew that I consider him a friend and I trust him more than anyone. Hence, he got the opportunity to find a way to reach out to me.

He bribed a doctor to make my mother ill. So that I can run to him in the hope to get help, he knew after all that was my condition. He launched me as a model not because he saw something in me but to get my name again in the paparazzi. To let the media know that his heart is an enormous place for any girl.

On one side, Mr Stewart somehow exceeded his plan. He manipulated and created the scenario against blake.

I know I have to kill Stewart for using my mother and making her ill but why would I have to marry blake?

And why was john asking me to meet him outside? What was he planning to do?

I stood up and collected my bag to run away from there. I need explanations for my questions and I will get them for all the reasons!

"Where are you going?" I felt his touch behind my back.

"To kill that bastard!" I blurted out in anger, I was fuming in anger from head to toe.

My blood was simmering in my body, and my whole body was vibrating as if someone has given me a shock.

"Don't be stupid!"

"You are being stupid! You have started all this! There was no need for fake engagement and now you want me to marry so that you can divorce me whenever you want to? So that you can leave me alone like the way you did in the last month? What kind of man you are!"

My head was spinning in all the directions, maybe I was hyperventilating in anger or maybe j have lost all my senses.

"If you are worried about divorce then let me assure you I won't divorce you!" His eyes were hard as stone, his cold fingertips were on my arm making me shudder, even more, his hot breath was all over my body.

"Oh, so what you are planning to do? And what about Sophia?"

"What about her?"

His eyebrows were more crooked than ever before as he has no idea what I am talking about her.

Why men are so complicated to understand?

Those deep dark eyes were more fluid than ever before, does he wants to say something? Does he have something in his heart?

Still, I am not going to marry just for the sake of his plan.

I want to marry someone who loves me, I don't want any pretending in my life. If I ever have to marry someone I would marry for love, not for any other purpose.

"I am not going to marry you!" The time was running, I must return to my home to check mother.

And you know what?

I think I need to run away from this state to another with my mother so that no one can control our life like the way they are doing.

"What?"

"Yes. I am not going to marry you, neither I am planning to work for you or Mr Stewart! "

"What are you saying? Are your out of your mind?"

Yes, I am out of my mind. And yes I am desperate for a better life but I am done pretending to be pleased when I am not. I don't want this marriage where there is no love. And I don't want your money either if you are considering for me to look at your offer.

I will do what my heart will say and I have decided to run away from this state, maybe somewhere far from New York, maybe to Alaska where I and my mother would be living a peaceful life, where there would be no torments of future, none the regrets of past, where we could be ourselves in a new place, where the roads won't know my past and nothing about the present.

Yes. I have decided to run away from here. I can't risk my mother's life.

"No, I am not out of my mind, and you need to understand too that marriage is not a game which occurs every day, people marry because they love each other, not for the sake of getting revenge.

I clutched my dress much harder this time and stormed out of the hospital because somewhere in my heart there was a voice telling me to stop, my heart was telling me that maybe he would stop me, but I know I was all wrong.

He is still the ruthless billionaire, and I am still the poor girl who belongs to the street. Nothing has changed since the beginning.

The weather was not enlightened anymore. A cold wind was silencing my heart in every possible way and my mind was not working, not even a bit.

Ending up alone as a wreck hurts, a teardrop touched my lips making me realise that I have started crying with no idea why I was crying

Was I hurt? Yes.

But I am hurt for what?

He asked me to marry him but not for love! And I know what will occur if approves of it.

Yeah, I am hurt because he didn't stop me!

Such a cruel bastard he is!

Suddenly I heard footsteps, maybe he is going to stop me after all.

Maybe he will stop all the pretending.

" Ashley,"

I looked back but found no one then a sudden jolt of pain erupted in my head and everything went black.
