My Innocent Girl novel Chapter 35

He said that he will show hate. What does that mean? Will he... oh god, will he torture me like they do in novels?

Oh God.

I shrugged my thoughts. No, no. Think positive.

I got up and looked at the time. It was 3:55. I should get my face washed and I should do the makeup again. Well, it is almost fine, but I just need some eyeliner again. Everything else is just good.

I went to the dressing table and got my makeup done. I went downstairs because I needed to calm myself.

I remembered the phone call once again. The call which made me do this. The call log disappeared as soon as the call cut. There was no sign of it. And also... I don't have a sim in my phone. How did the call come?

I have to stop thinking about this. They said they will never contact me again if I do this, and I thought, what would I lose? But I think... I lost a lot. I think that it was the worst mistake ever committed. I think instead of that, I should have told him. Wait, I can still tell him about it.

About everything. About the call, the threat and the words. This can make things better. 

I started moving until I reached one man. I know he might have his men here... after all he is the Mafia boss.

"Hey. Where is Vincent?" I asked.

He looked at me and bowed. "Ms. Ashley. He is in his room. But I have to inform you, he might not want you to meet him there, because that room is prohibited for everyone else. But you may be allowed too because you are his to-be wife. Please take this into consideration"

I nodded. I am allowed, right? Oh, let me go. I know I am allowed. I am his to-be wife!

"Thank you. May I know where his room is?" I looked dumb while asking this question, but...

"It's right there," he told me. "I advice you at least knock, Ms. Ashley. He didn't seem to be in a good mood"

"Alright, thanks. May I know your name?"

"David"

"Thank you" I went in the direction he told me and stood in front of his gate.

Should I even knock? Well, what I mean is... should I even go? Will he be angry? Well, he is already so mad at me, I think it is worth the risk.

I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. There was no reply, and then I took another deep breath and as I was about to knock again, the door opened and he pulled me inside by my hand and closed the door.

God, I stopped breathing completely.

"Why are you here?" he asked, in a rather dangerous tone.

I looked at the surroundings as I found it difficult to meet his eyes. The room was completely black. And my heart raced as he came closer to my ear and whispered. His lips almost touched my earlobe.

"Tell me..." he whispered. "Why are you here?"

Well, I was blushing even in this situation, where I felt like dying. 

He looked at me and smirked. "Well... okay" he picked me up in his embrace and I was beyond shocked.

"V-Vincent--"

"Shh Ashley. Keep quiet and just... let me" 

The next thing I knew was he was carrying me all the way down. I was so embarrassed but still I saw the faces of the men and Aliniah there. They were too shocked that they seemed so even when I am sure they are trained to hide emotions.

He put me down when we reached the lift. 

"Well, Ms. Ashley..." he smirked at me. "Get ready to become Mrs. Smith" 

Chris

"Hey" I wished Heather as she entered my house. It was night time and finally, I will get to spend some time with her.

"Hey! I missed you so much!" she hugged me.

I hugged her back. "Yeah, I missed you too"

"I am sometimes so sad that we have to manage these companies. we don't even get time for each other" she sighed. "It would have been so good if we only had to be with each other and take care. But see, our fate is so bad. Now we don't even time and no matter how hard we try, we are always gonna have just an hour--"
