My Innocent Girl novel Chapter 63

"Huh" She went and sat beside Lara. I was sitting across them. 

"What's that file?" I deliberately asked. It was kept near the couch.

"Uh..." Ashley scoffed. "Doesn't concern you"

I got up and took the file. She came to me. "hey! Give it back!"

"Nah"

I opened the file but she snathed it from me. I took it from her and got a hold of her hand. She looked at me. "You better not take it"

"But--"

"Shh" 

She looked at me with a troubled face and I opened the file. I read it and gave it back to her. I laughed shortly. "You love him?"

"He is... that file is wrong!"

"It is not wrong"

"What?"

"I know that about him already. That's why he is called a monster"

"But he--"

"Whatever you see of him, it is just an act put up"

"Uh..."

"I can help you"

"Oh why would you and how?"

"We can make a plan"

"But why would you do it?"

"Because I want to expose him!"

Ashley

I sighed. I don't know if I should do this. Maybe I am betraying him in this way? Maybe he will think that I did not even trust him. 

but... it isn't about trust. He never, like, told me he never touched girls or something like that. Maybe... I will regret not doing this.

"What are you thinking?" I heard him.

"Uh..." I sighed. "I don't know--"

"Ms. Lara, what do you think?"

Lara glared at him again. I feel something suspicious. "I don't know"

"Oh..." he sighed. "You should"

"Uh... maybe he is right," she looked at me. "You should know the truth"

I sighed. I don't know, dude. I don't wanna make any misunderstandings between us but they are right too. I know this file may hold something. I mean, I don't believe anything Chris says but he seemed to be sure too. I don't think this is a coincidence that both of them are so confident about this.

"Uh... okay... I am ready" I finally said.

I nodded. I think the plan will work but I don't know if I am doing the right thing. Maybe this can come between our relationship but honestly, I wanna know the truth. The file seems legit, and having Lara support is something real.

"So when do we start?" I heard him.

"Let's see. Not now. Now, Vincent is fighting with someone for me. Let him come home. Everything will be settled, and then we will start our plan. Okay?"

"Okay" 

I nodded and he smiled. "Then I will leave now"

"Sure"

He turned around. "If this isn't anything bad," I said, and he turned towards me. "Then thanks, Chris"

"You're welcome" 

I nodded and he looked at Lara. "See you again, Ms. Lara"

"See ya"

He smiled at her and she returned the smile. He went out and I sighed. "Oh I wonder what's gonna happen now"

"Truth" she smiled and went to the kitchen and I followed her as I remembered that our cake must've been ready by now.

Vincent

We attacked the group and they were prepared too. It was a long and hard fight, of course bloody too, but we made it through. We won.

I was so happy. The leader was still alive, while some of their men were dead and the others ran away.

"Stay away from her" I warned him and smirked. He just breathed heavily, while begging for me to leave him alive. I don't kill now. I left it since someone enlightened my heart.
