When America's Sweetheart Chose Her Agent Over Her Husband novel Chapter 7

From that day on, it seemed like Ashley had taken a long vacation for herself.

Every day, she'd wait for me outside my door and bring me breakfast.

Over the course of that week, Ashley seemed like a completely different person.

The first thing she'd say whenever she saw me was, "Dylan, you were always so kind to me, and I thought everything I did was right."

"But now I realize how wrong I was, and I know now that as a wife, I need to be gentle with my husband."

"It was all my fault before, but I swear I won't act so selfishly again."

"I'm even trying to make my own herbal teas now, and I never knew how hard it was."

"Dylan, I miss you."

But the company's reputation had taken a serious hit, and even Ashley and Austin's golden image seemed to have tarnished.

Accusations of "breach of contract," "tax evasion," and "dual contracts" were now attached to their names.

I knew this was all because my friend, Daniel Grayson, had helped me get back at them.

And Ashley, I think, was coming to me every day because, without the resources I used to provide, she realized she was barely holding it together.
